The Pocatello Valley area of Utah is beautiful…

[Buckfever34]

Just returned from my first mule deer hunt in the state of Utah. I always wanted to chase velvet mulies and finally had the chance. CWMU tag. Lots of moisture this year. Water everywhere I glassed.

Went in with the goal of killing a buck that was in full velvet; which would be a first for me. Looked at probably 25-30 different bucks. This was the biggest one I found. I’m sure there was probably a bigger one in the area, but he’s a darn good hider cause we picked every canyon apart. It was a five day hunt and bad weather was moving in. The rest is history.

Beautiful country up there. Nice area and nice people, too. I think I will add Idaho on my list of areas to hunt as well. I enjoyed the view as I looked north.

Back to the office now for a couple weeks before Wyoming. There’s gonna be a lot of daydreaming between now and then wishing I was back up in Muley country.

I hope you all had a great Labor Day weekend.

Bless you all, Clint

I hunted a CWMU in that area a few years ago. I believe you killed as good a buck as there is in that country. Not saying there has never been a bigger buck killed but you did extremely well, IMO. Congratulation on a good looking muley.

P.S. Well done on the fuzzy head.

Nice. Thanks for the pics. If your heel ever hurts from a blister, just remember this cat. “The Dr says I should have come in a couple days ago!!”

This video turns my stomach…..so does the pic of the foot. Haha.

Looking at those barren hills, I'd say any Archery kill is a good one. Nice looking buck.!!

Of course it was rifle because you are wearing the required florescent orange.

Not required on CWMU’s…

Excellent buck, congratulations!
Looks like you are wearing a B&B hat?
Is this one of their properties you hunted?

Yessir, this the hunt I had messaged you about. What a great group of people.

To clarify, no orange required on CWMU.
