South Dakota Whitetail and Mule Deer
These hunts take place on three private ranches. Success is very high. As a matter of fact opportunity consistently runs 100% on Whitetail and Mule Deer. Most Whitetail bucks score in the 130 to 160 B & C points range. Mule Deer bucks are mature 4x4s with 24 to 28-inch spreads. However, we do take larger Whitetail and Mule Deer annually.
