First Mule Deer hunt this Fall!

[Brandon N]

Headed out to Montana for my first mule deer hunt this fall with a friend. We will be hunting around Lewistown on a general tag. I have no expectations, I am not looking for spots...im simply blessed to be doing something new (althought killing big whitetails is still fun). Ive hammered OnX. Only feedback I would ask is around timing. We wanted to hunt the rut so we are going the 3rd week of November. Obviously a lot will be weather dependent, but any general thoughts on that week?

Good luck.

Late November can work well for rutting muleys. Good-luck!

I would probably go a little earlier…10th through 17th ish. They will be doing rutty stuff all month, but bucks were actively chasing dies during that period when we were there a few years ago. That’s on par with my muleys at home too, and they are at a little lower latitude.

Yeah I wish we would have booked the week before, but its a little late for that....we are giving up first week of rifle season in Missouri to do this. We also decided to use LandTrust to lease a little private ground for the week but there will be hunters there the weeks before. No idea what we are getting into

Mule deer are grey ghosts, spend plenty of time behind the glass. Good luck this season!
