Hunting season is over and most of the lower 48. You may have a late season muzzleloader tag for a primitive weapons tag burning a hole in your pocket, but for the rest of us the 2024 season is done. What should I do now? After 90+ days of chasing bucks and ducks or grouse free time may feel strange. It’s a bit too cold out to start practicing marksmanship for next season. You can only put so much time into buying preference points, or applying for tags, and eventually scanning OnX in the evening for ridges or saddles you may have missed gets boring. When the boredom finds you one of the best ways to spend, the winter is sitting next to the fire with a good book. What follows are a few winter reading suggestions from the Mule Deer Foundation and Blacktail Deer Foundation?

December has come again. The season started with such promise, full of aspirations for massive antlers fitting perfectly in the empty space on the wall. A winter of deer steaks and chili enjoyed while retelling the story of conquest, of trials and tribulations that lead to the meal before you. A summer spent practicing with your rifle and optics, buying the newest “must have” gear, and watching every Mule Deer hunting video on the internet lead to a September full of deliberate scouting and combing the fields and sage flats for your target buck in anticipation of opening day.
