Default Southern mulie sucess

It was time to burn our mulie priority this year. Headed south and had a great 3 days of hunting. Might have been able to shoot bigger bucks if we hunted more but might not have. Very happy with these mulies. Only posting field shot of my deer. Add in chasing around pheasants makes a very different hunt than we are used to from up north. You guys down south are lucky with the numbers of deer.

We weren't able to get any scouting done but a few phone calls, lots of google earth, great landowners (mostly) and some help from good members made it successful.

Great quality harvest!
I'd have no problem with any of those bucks, you did well and the photo on the truck and hike out are classics.
Good memories

Great bucks. All 3 of them! Congrats.

My partner and I are heading north of Grande Prarie next weekend on a mixed-bag hunt. After seeing your pics and with memories of my solo Muley trip last year still fresh on my mind I wish I was heading down south again. The land owners I ran into were great and I sure loved the country. It was one of the best trips I've ever been on.

Thanks for posting.

Sounds like a wonderful hunt along with some great deer.I ve been running 8 trail cams and out hunting four solid days on private property and have yet to see the quality of your deer.In my opinion it looks like you really hit the honey hole.

I got my deer back from the taxidermist and it turned out really good. A good chance to remember the fun we had down south. Also got my antelope from 2016... [IMG][/IMG][IMG][/IMG]
