I am heading out thursday for a 4 day desert mule deer hunt in south west Texas (Ward Co.). Does anyone out there have an info for me. This is my first desert mulie hunt. Hunted many a whitetail, but not sure what to expect from mulies.
I wish the big bastard I say earlier this year was stupid. He's been eluding me for 2 years now.:banghead:tend to be more stooopid than white tail
"Real" bucks tend to bed down somewhere along the downwind crest of a ridge, generally near a saddle. Mostly, a little below the crest. That way, they can hear or smell anything coming from behind them, and see anything approaching up the slope. When they bail out, they'll cut through the saddle where there's more brush, and head upwind.

I don't think most of 'em I've seen growing up out in TX panhandle are so stooopid as to get caught within bow range ...
