Summary: Whats up everybody, welcome to Muley Monday. Today I am joined by Erik from Muley Freak, to talk about Mule Deer of all things. In this episode, Erik shares some stories from last season and we chat how to be an effective hunter when you have a short amount of time to get it done. Erik Like me always stacks too many hunts into a season and then has to fill tags with very limited time. Last years New Mexico hunt was a great example, and after chasing a particular buck all week Erik finally had to recognize an opportunity when it was given.<br> Check out Erik’s video <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ug30I4KL6Q8&feature=youtu.be">Muley Freak | Archery Mule Deer Film | “Desierto”</a><br> <br> This year I launched <a href="https://backcountryfuelbox.com/">Backcountry Fuel Box</a>, a monthly subscription box for backcountry meals, bars, snacks, gues, and all kinds of great new products you have probably never heard of.

I have been obsessed with the solo targets and love the realism of having to pick a spot on an animal and not just shoot a spot. With Solo Targets, you can turn any block target into a realistic hunting scenario for far cheaper than a 3D target. Honestly, I like the realism of the 2D targets overshooting a 3d Target. I also really like that all of the targets are actual life size target which really gives you a feel for looking at that animal at different yardages. I just got the new mule deer buck target and that thing is badass. The target alone will give you buck fever. We set it up in the field with just a small block target behind it which is such a realistic added pressure, if you don’t hit the vitals that arrow is gone. Just that added bit of pressure makes you really hone in on your target. head over to <a href="http://solotargets.com/">solotargets.com</a> and use The Rich Outdoors code TRO to save 20% off your badass target system.<br> Whats up killers, you guys hear me talk about <a href="https://www.gohunt.com/TRO">goHUNT</a> all the time, but now is your chance to try it out for Free.
