MULE
DEER BOWHUNTS IN ALBERTA
CANADA
Our Mule Deer archery
hunts are a bow hunters dream. In our hunting zone, Peace River
region of Alberta, Canada, mule deer have been on a limited
draw since 1997 which has increased deer numbers and added age
to the bucks.
Mule deer in our bowhunting zone always had excellent genetics.
Five out of the top ten mule deer ever taken in Alberta are
from our area. This includes the number 1 typical taken 1 1/2
miles from my house by a local neighbor boy; it scored 206 Boone
and Crockett. Now the situation is even better. The excellent
genetics are still there with very light hunting pressure.
Bowhunting season, during late August early September, we see
mule deer in bachelor groups, as many as 15 in a bunch, feeding
on bloomed canola fields or oats. These bucks bed in the fields
in midday, giving the hunter an excellent spot and stalk opportunity
or to position a climber stand for a push.
We should be able to do a couple of stalks a day and sit in
the evenings for at least a 170 class mule deer. The biggest
deer we stalked in 2001 would have been the new archery record
at 195. I predict that we will be putting some new mule deer
in the top ten in the next few years. |
