Feb 9, 2022 · Now we are looking to take my father on his dream hunt which is mule deer. I have been purchasing points for him for a couple of years now for Montana. We chose to focus on Eastern Montana because we had heard their were decent numbers of deer and the terrain was typically easier to navigate than further west.

Apr 17, 2020 · Drew the 300 mule deer permit as well! Heading down the end of this week to do some scouting. I'm planning to archery hunt it the 2nd week of the season and then go back for rifle if needed. I've heard archery can be somewhat better as there might not be as many hunters there putting pressure on the elk, which also stirs up the bucks. Would love to hear anyone's …

Sep 24, 2013 · Mule deer are declining in MT, and even though you'll hear alot of complaints, I think you can still find trophy mule deer almost anywhere. I now hunt in a west-central Montana unlimited draw district for muleys and have nearly my whole life, and even though I surely don't get "trophy" caliber deer every year, I always seem to know someone who ...

May 19, 2014 · My brother and I are heading to Montana this November to do some Mule deer hunting. We've hunted mule deer in Western ND's badlands before and have never been to this part of Montana so I am wondering what to expect as for as size of deer (not that it has to be 190 class buck) and hunting...

Jul 24, 2015 · We've hunted 2 different areas the last 2 years and have had totally different luck with the same results, so I'm looking for some information on other good areas to try for mule deer. The first year we went to Broadus MT and saw like no deer in the public lands, hundreds in the private land, so...

Jan 16, 2019 · Looking at taking a trip to Montana Hunt District 650 next year for rifle season. Was just wondering if there is many mule deer around that area and what we should be expecting out there. We would be hunting on the east side of the hunting district and may have a possibility of getting on a...

Nov 3, 2015 · When would you say the peak of the mule deer rut is in Montana? Does it vary in different parts of the state? When is your favorite time frame for hunting mule deer?

Feb 18, 2022 · Hi everyone! Hope the draw was in your favor this year! I certainly felt lucky when I saw I pulled a 261 muley tag with only 6 points! I live in Missoula and work in Ravalli county so I’ll have plenty of time to scout and explore the unit! I know 261/270 are often considered Montana’s best mule deer units.

Jun 29, 2019 · I'm taking my son who turns 8 in October with me on what will be his first big Western hunting trip. I'm looking at units 704 or 705 for deer and I'm hoping to find some places that wont be too strenuous for him but that wont be road hunting either. This will be his first big hunting trip and...

Mar 22, 2016 · I'm hoping to revive the elk and deer hunting HD 445 thread. Has anyone hunted this district either archery or rifle in the last couple years, and care to provide some information on their experience. Thanks
