Stalking Trophy Mule Deer

This book covers a lot of topics briefly and gives a good overview of the different hunting techniques and has some good photos and drawings. It also covers equipment needed for a back country hunt for gun hunters. It doesn't cover bow hunting equipment. The main complaint I have is in the condition of the used book which I purchased has a broken spine and loose pages that are falling out.

Trophy Hunter

This book is a specialized resource for big game hunters who want to prepare to hunt Mule Deer. The book provides a good overview of deer hunting strategy and tactics, and excellent information about Mule Deer behavior and habitat. Prothero's discussion of hunting tactics, particularly tracking, are also right on the mark, but the reading gets a bit tiresome as the author provides many examples that always seem to end with a huge running buck being brought down by a heroic shot. If you can handle the chest thumping, it's a good read.

I wished I had read this before hunting season

This was a very informative book. The hunting stories were enterntaining but did not get in the way of the lessons being taught. As the author admits, there are some redundant stories due to how the book was written. However, I thought they were useful in driving certain points home.Overall, a good book on hunting mule deer.
