[QUOTE="Bowhunter_24, post: 135673, member: 329"] A lot of glassing. I was out this weekend and was sitting on a side hill with my brother. We were there for about ten minutes and were eating food and talking. We were just getting up to leave and he spotted a big mature buck bedded only 150 yards away from us. He just stared us down and didn't move. I would say you see probably 50% of the mule deer that are actually there. Its amazing how they blend in and can "hide" behind a little hill or in trees. I used to just sit on the highest hill and glass for hours. Now I slowly walk from ridge to ridge. A different angle is all it takes some times. When there is no snow I look for white spots. Their rumps stick out from a long way away and their face. If you go later in the season when the rut is farther along, if you see does watch them for a long time. There is more than likely a buck within a 100 yards. A lot of times they will bed just far enough away to keep an eye on them. [/QUOTE]
