Stand hunting. Still hunting. Driving. Platoon brushing. Rattling. The loop method. These are among the strategies described in this book that produce successful mule deer trophies. The wily mule... This description may be from another edition of this product.
This book is a specialized resource for big game hunters who want to prepare to hunt Mule Deer. The book provides a good overview of deer hunting strategy and tactics, and excellent information about Mule Deer behavior and habitat. Prothero's discussion of hunting tactics, particularly tracking, are also right on the mark, but the reading gets a bit tiresome as the author provides many examples that always seem to end with a huge running buck being brought down by a heroic shot. If you can handle the chest thumping, it's a good read.
I wished I had read this before hunting season

This was a very informative book. The hunting stories were enterntaining but did not get in the way of the lessons being taught. As the author admits, there are some redundant stories due to how the book was written. However, I thought they were useful in driving certain points home.Overall, a good book on hunting mule deer.
