Hunt the West

Backpacking For Mule Deer In The High Country | Opening Day Debrief


Listen Later

#061 - Opening Day! It's my first backpack hunt and I learned some things. I have some lessons learned the hard way on archery gear, playing the wind, and getting close to those bachelor herds of bucks up the high country. I learned a LOT! I also had a great time.
