It's that time of year again. Let's see those big and small game kills of the '18-19 season.

First one of the year for me, not a trophy, a doe with the muzzleloader. Will yield some nice roasts, chip steak and lebanon bologna. :)

Is that a crossbreed? I’ve never seen anything like that before. Damn beautiful animal dude! Congratulations!!

ImMike- thanks

This is as far as I could tell a run of the mill Sask Mule deer. I have heard people ask the question about whitetail and mule deer breeding and I don’t know if it can happen or not. What I do know from personal experience as witnessed twice this fall is I have seen whitetail and mulie’s running together and in the same herd. For a mule deer this guy didn’t have a large spread, but he did have great mass, a largee frame- decent main beams, a broken off drop tine ( probably done while in velvet), guessing he was in his prime and maybe had one or two good years left before he would start to go downhill. We did have him scored and he Grossed 190-1/8. Here in sask it’s all draw seasons for Mule deer unless you’re an archery hunter- a few zones offer a regular season for archery.

Cheers

There was some pictures posted here last deer season of a huge rack taken near Post, Texas. The rack on one side was a typical whitetail and the other was a typical mulie. It was speculated that it was a crossbreed because of that and the fact that in that area the two breeds occupied the same territory.

Looked back at the post from last year and it looks like my memory isn't all that good. What the pictures show is a mulie with a whitetail rack and vise versa.

Kmart, One of the reasons my interest is so up right now is that I have a nice whitetail around my stand that has a mulie looking side just from injuries or something. His G2 splits big giving him that look and the G3 and beam looks like another big split. His left side is typical and heavier.

Mike, The muley and whitetail have been crossbreeding in Wyoming. We would have a local wildlife biologist stop in our camp each year. He pointed out split characteristics on deer that we had taken.
