AzDesertAddict Report post Posted July 28, 2011 I just got drawn for unit 28 mule deer hunt. I am new to hunting looking for my first deer and no one I know hunts and so I stick with the ol' trial and error. My question is when hunting desert mulies such as in 28, do i want to be scouting in the higher elevation or lower? What kind of patterns do mule deer have if any? I am gonna get out and see if I can't find something but wasn't sure what elevation they hang out in. My hunt is in november if that matters. Any advice will be greatly appreciated!
