    Coues or Mule deer

    I had a 16 tag a few years ago with this option. My plan was to target Coues deer in the Wilderness. That was until I realized the great monsoon that year allowed the grass to grow tall enough to conceal all but the head of a standing Coues deer. My point is, depending on where you plan on...

    Has anyone hunted the Deep Creek mountains? I have the archery tag and am just curious as to what I should expect from this hunt. Thanks!
