I was just wondering because as a kid we only hunted mulies til I was like 16 but I have never looked back. Until my buddy told about a huge mulie in 33 with like a 36 " spread.

Maybe I'm wrong, but in Arizona, it seems like a 120" whitetail would be more obtainable than a 190" Mulie? The elusive whitetail certainly has it's magic, but I sure would love to harvest a 190" Mulie before my time is up. Probably won't happen.

 

Sorry....But I had to vote 190" Mulie.

This is the same way I feel. I love hunting coues but there is something about mule deer as well.

Sherman, is this the same mulie we talked about a few months ago?

. Yes it has been haunting me for a year now. But I got a 30b wt tag this year

I've seen that buck progress for years just never been able to get close enough. There's been a few guys after him from what I've heard. Saw him in jan. of 08 the first time and he was big then.

I got him on train cam, problem is the cows moved my camera so I only got a rear view from his sac down haha! He jumped out of a small gully one year about 50 yards from me, had his younger brother with him. Scared me so bad I didn't even think to draw my bow, just watched them run off into the canyon.

A 190" desert mule deer taken from public lands is no joke. I think a bit harder than a 120" coues though. A lot of people always talk about 200" mule deer and all that stuff but a 170" desert mule deer is a dang good deer, not easy to do, so a 190" is the stuff of legends. I hunt coues religiously but my vote it for the mule deer.

190 mulie for sure!

 

Been chasing a toad for three years and he keeps eluding me. He's not a 190 deer, but big enough for me!

 

There's something special about a big, wide mule deer staring you down at 65 yards and you're out of options. Who blinks first?!

Are you kidding me, 120" coues vs 190" muley? :o I just don't know when all the hype about inches took over in our hunting world. :rolleyes:

 

Hang a 120" coues along size a 190" muley and compare the two weights. There are definitely more steaks on a muley. I just asked my lab which she preferred and she said "are you kidding me? :huh: More chewing time on the muley".

 

Enough said with this vote. :D
