Four of the top 10 and three out of the top
five mule deer ever killed in Oklahoma have come off my land. One
non-typical scored 242 B&C and had a 36-inch inside spread. Another
typical mule deer scored in the 180-range. We’ve also produced three
whitetails that score over 200 gross (180-190 net). One gross scores 225!
One day 3 years ago, our outfit harvested 16
bucks. Two scored in the 160-class, one scored 182 and one huge buck
scored 190. Five years ago, we shot 36 bucks. 16 scored over 150, and
three muleys scored over 160!
We hunt over the mineral licks. And all our
feeders are near licks.
We’ve
got some monsters. Our average body weight has remained stable, but the
minerals made a big difference in antler size.
