I see that it runs until Dec 10th. Maybe I was watching some videos of where they were high fence hunting Muleys at the end of December, but it didn't appear so- glassing the hill country for miles. I will be contacting WTHO as well.

Looking for some advice from those of you who know better than myself. I have been wanting to do a mule deer hunt for quite some time now, but am limited to my time frame (end of December/early January). I teach high school here in IL and can only really get away over the winter break, at...

To keep a long walk a short story- I shot my second/third largest buck on Jan 2nd, 2022 with one of my muzzleloaders. Absolutely perfect January afternoon- bright and sunny, about 5 degrees, and about 6 inches of fresh snow on the ground. I saw him come over a hill about 200 yrds away, and it...

Alaska is on my "make a wish" bucket list. I think I would have to live there to hunt there. Good luck to those of you that have the opportunity to get up there.

???- I don't know what to do.

I hunt N IL, tried to shoot a black one with my bow last year when I ran into walking to my spot, but he saw me before I could get the shot off. On the flip side, I shot a white one this year with my bow but he fell into the creek and floated away. Creek was too deep and moving too fast to...

Thank you very much-I will look into both.

Have you hunted at those, word of mouth, ect??
