Hey guys, evil non-resident here. I drew my first ever Utah tag, its a general unit rifle Mule Deer Buck tag in Southern Utah. I will be going in my first time blind, but I have spent a lot of time on Google Earth and done other homework. I'm not here to ask where to go, or somebody to hold my hand. I've got enough country marked on my maps to look at that it may take a few seasons to see it all.
But I thought ide ask the Utah Pro's (there are a lot of you guys on this site) more or less when the mature Mule deer bucks begin to follow the does around in So. Utah?
The season runs from Oct. 22-30 this year and I was wondering if the last 4 or 5 days of the season, whether I should concentrate on trying to find and glassing groups of does, or if I should concentrate on trying to glass up and still hunt solitary bucks around thicker cover in rougher terrain. When I'm there, ill let the current conditions dictate where and how I hunt, but having a general knowledge of when those deer rut would help me out a lot.
Lookin' forward to hearing your thoughts.
