Mule
Deer Hunts
 |
|
Texas is home to a number of desert mule deer. These
mulies are found in the trans-Pecos mountain region
of far west Texas and the Palo Duro Canyon area in
the panhandle region of North Texas. Many of the
mature bucks harvested in these areas are matching
what is currently coming out of the Rocky Mountain
states. Hunters do not have to draw for a hunting
license, nor do they have to pick a certain set of
days to hunt like most mountain states. Hunters
usually can hunt in a comfortable climate, free of
snow, and deep mud as often found in the Rocky
Mountains. In addition, hunters may hunt out of a
vehicle safari style and have the opportunity to
harvest additional game during their hunt such as
feral hog, bobcat, fox, javelina, and/or aoudad
sheep. |

Hunting Methods
|
|
We leave our hunting lodges at or before first light and return late morning for lunch. After lunch, we once again head out into the field for the afternoon hunt. Hunting is conducted primarily safari-style out of 4WD trucks, jeeps and ATV's with frequent stops to glass nearby mountains and canyons for game. Walking and stalking called "still hunting" along with spending time overlooking a favortie afternoon watering hole are also excellent methods of locating big bucks. Most shooting opportunites are at distances under 200 yards while some shot opportunities may be further. "Mountain Hunting" may require hunters to shoot resting their rifles on shooting sticks, bipods, or over the top of their guide's backpack. In preparation for their trip, hunters may want to consider practicing their shooting from similiar rests to help prevent a "missed opportunity" when it's "show time"!

"First of all, thank you
both so much for an outstanding hunt. Dan and I had a
great time. The food was outstanding, we were treated
well, and the mule deer we took surpassed all of our
expectations. The Palo Duro Canyon Ranch is one
impressive ranch as well. Dan and I are already trying
to figure out a way to get back and hunt with you all
again. I think those aoudad might be in trouble! Thanks
again."
