Now days, it is a thrill and a privilege to hunt one of the few and limited areas across the handful of western states made famous by mule deer. What comes to mind is the state of Colorado where big mule deer are known to be found. It is a fact that many of the best specimens in the country have been tagged year after year in the Centennial State. And although mule deer numbers have diminished and record book bucks are about as rare as hens’ teeth, the hunting experience is none the less rewarding for the hunter who can find satisfaction in a quality hunt for a mature buck.
