Frank, I know exactly where you're at. I was born in McCook, raised on a farm 34 miles north of there, and until two years ago, was coming back every year to hunt with my Dad, just north of Arapahoe. Do you still see a lot of whitetails aroung there?


Dom, there isn't probably ten cents of difference between these mule deer and their whitetail cousins, in fact, there are a lot of crosses in this particular area. I shot one about ten years ago that they tried to check in as a whitetail. It wasn't, I finally convinced them it was a mule deer. Whitetails are just more aggressive, so they do more of the breeding.
