A Fascinating, Comprehensive Look at the Iconic Mule Deer of the West from the Nation’s Premiere Big Game Hunting Historians.
No one can deny that the Golden Era of mule deer hunting happened decades ago with nearly 80 percent of the top 50 mule deer recognized by the Boone and Crockett Club being taken before 1976—some taken as far back as the 1800s.
A Mule Deer Retrospective provides commentary and stunning photographic collages of impressive trophy mule deer like Ed Broder’s World’s Record non-typical mule deer taken near Chip Lake, Alberta, in 1926, and Doug Burris’s Colorado King taken in 1972, which still reigns as the World’s Record typical mule deer. Also included are chapters dedicated to vintage mule deer photographs, award-winning trophy bucks, historic look at the hunting tradition in the West, and more.
With the vast amount of photographs, entertaining correspondence, and historical trophy data, A Mule Deer Retrospective will not disappoint!
