[QUOTE="MuleyMadness, post: 392391, member: 5313"] As an avid deer hunter, archery and rifle from SW ND this is what I am seeing from a hunters perspective. I have always applied for a 4D Muley buck tag since I was 20 (now 40). Used to bow hunt in the badlands quite a bit when I was a little younger.

The badlands gets smashed by people because of 1 simple thing......posting and access to thousands of badlands acres filled with mule deer. I for one after my next mule deer buck tag am changing rifle units because I am tired of waiting 5+ years to get a tag.
