I am really getting into hunting with my muzzle loader. I was looking at the NMLRA website, and for a mule deer to make there book, the minimum is 146"

I have never been a "trophy" hunter, and am rather opportunistic. What would I be looking for in a buck that would score 146" or better?

Approximate width, tine length, etc?

Maybe some pics of bucks in this range?

Thanks,

Marcial

Thanks for the pics guys. I guess that would be about what I had in mind. Saw a couple about the size of those two last year, maybe a little smaller. Not sure if the area I hunt just doesn't produce bigger bucks, or I wasn't looking hard enough.

Later,

correct...that thing had real cool trash on his bases that made him a 5x6 when we had him measured. if i remember correctly, the bases were 6-6 1/2"

This is mine from this year. It went in the 138 range. Just under 20" wide.
