Mule Deer Tips with Jess Reveal

Show Notes:

Jess Reveal lives in southern Utah, and she joins me here to chat about mule deer. Jess has been living in Utah for the past 10 years and grew up hunting with her dad out in Missouri. She didn’t find her way into bow hunting until she moved to Utah and met her husband. After he showed her the ropes, she eventually snagged her first muley while she was eight months pregnant with her daughter! Jess continues to dive deeper into archery hunting and is always eager to learn more.

There’s so much more to hunting than just going out and killing an animal. Jess wants to teach that lesson to her daughter, along with the respect that goes along with bow hunting. We talk about growing up hunting in a tree stand and the differences between that and archery. We’re spoiled today with phones and technology, but we’ve also become dependent on them. Jess and I talk about the evolution of hunting tech and how far we’ve come since the old days.

Jess shares her approach to the mule deer season, and we get into the tactics she’s used to get big bucks. Archery season is just a month long in Utah, but it’s a year long process for her. She watches them rut and how they’re acting and migrating, and she does a lot of legwork before the actual hunt. We also get into some elk hunting stories, how Jess finds new areas, and more.
