Mule Deer

Hunt MD678

ALBERTA TROPHY MULIES $6600
RANCH/FARMLAND 100% SUCCESS
AVERAGE HAS BEEN 180 B & C

Both hunters in 2013 took bucks gross scoring between 180 and 185 inches. This has been the most consistent muley hunt for quite a few years.  In 2012 both hunters took bucks consistent with past years grossing at that 180 mark. In 2011 both hunters took bucks in the 180-inch class and one hunter even did it with the bow during rifle season.  The outfitter has 2 muley tags in Zone 305 where it normally takes a resident about 5 years to draw. He hunts a 25,000-acre private cattle farm, along with several more in southern Alberta and has run 100% success on bucks averaging 180 inches. Mule deer here have a tendency to have good deep forks, not a lot of width, but good mass, typical of most Canadian mule deer. The season normally opens the last Wednesday of October and he prefers to start his 6-day hunts at that time or into early November to catch some of the rut. Some days hunters have seen between 20 and 30 bucks. Fairly open terrain and good for glassing. Hunts are guided 1x1 and include ranch house accommodations, meals and airport pickup in Calgary. License is $250 plus 5 percent tax.  Next available opening is in 2016. Hunt MD678.
