[QUOTE="Lungdeflator, post: 168399, member: 5163"] Hey guys, I am pretty new to spot and stalk Muley hunting. My wife and I have taken a 4 day hunt each of the last 2 years and have gotten close a few times, but have yet to connect. We have learned a TON and really look forward to the hunt now. Our strategy has has been to get out to a high point early in the morning and glass deer as they head back to bedding spots. We have found this to be effective in seeing good bucks and bedding them down before moving in on the stalk, but we have yet to connect and more often than not, it is a single stalk and then done for the day. Especially the hotter days they don't want to get up to move very far (just to get back into the shade). We have been hunting around the Grassy Butte area. But really haven't checked around any areas. What does everybody do during the day? Drive around and glass hoping to see a bedded deer? Has anybody had success setting in one spot in the evenings and hoping one walks by? Does anybody know if there are areas of higher deer concentrations than other areas? Not looking for specifics or anybodys secret spots, just trying to learn more about the area. I would love to shoot one, but I honestly think I would be happier if my wife shot one. [/QUOTE]
