As always, share a picture or two. Those are always fun to see.

Utah Rifle

I am a sucker for big typical's and I'm sure I will never shoot one that I like more. I'm of the belief that if a guy can work long and hard enough, eventually that effort is likely to be rewarded with a dream. Thanks COPLAINSHNTR

Biggest bodied Blacktail I've ever killed. Weighed 171 pounds cut in half with only guts out. After the 2 mile packout. Had to make 2 trips.

Best Blacktail taken. Both OR bucks.

Hoping for a big Muley one day!

I've only hunted Muleys in one state, and Whitetails in one state, so it's an easy answer for me!

Muley, Utah rifle
Whitetail, Kansas Archery

sambo3006 · Jun 17, 2022

Being from Missouri, I don’t get the chance to hunt mule deer every year if I also want to chase elk, antelope, and bear. My biggest mule deer is a public land 22” spread 140” 4x4 on a Montana general season tag.
I did also kill a Montana general public land 144” whitetail. He was a big bodied gray faced buck. I was after mule deer but couldn’t pass up that big boy!

My biggest to date, California.
Was never interested in score, but wouldn't mind taping him someday.

Hunter53 · Jun 29, 2022

WOW there are some fantastic mule deer in this thread!!
A mule deer hunt is on my bucket list for sure.
Whitetail is what I have to hunt here in my part of Nebraska.
Here is my biggest; gross scored a hair over 195. Got him in 2018.

Both my biggest WT & MD have come from Texas and both were with a rifle, hoping to improve on the mule deer this year in Colorado

Joe2Kool · Sep 15, 2024

Muley, 2023, Nebraska. 300 Win Mag.

Whitetail, 2016, Iowa. Champion Bow.

But, the plan is to get a bigger WT this year. either in Kansas, or Tennessee, with these TN guys at the top of the list!
