Excellent idea. About 1/2 the MT bucks we take are whitetails where we hunt SE. We have really come to enjoy chasing those semi open country whitetails, and they are better table fare too. Probably easier for us to select a WT because we can hunt mule deer at home.
Our last hunt was 2021, population had dramatically dropped due to drought & a blue tongue outbreak. We are waiting for the population of either or both to recover where we hunt. Once they recover some, we’ll be back looking for either species.
