I have never seen a mule deer anywhere close to me, but he sure does have them splits like one. I have decided to get him mounted. I will probley never kill another like him. He doesn't score much but is very unique.

I have seen what people called crosses before, and that sure looks like one. Great deer.
Maybe MTBowhunter can comment, he is in an area where crosses could be likely.

I saw a brute down near Wildhorse Colorado a guy shot that was the opposite. It was a mule deer with a very much whitetail rack. It had more overall mass than any deer of either type I have ever seen anywhere.

He has earned a place on your wall. Cant score any higher than that.

That is a gorgeous buck, no matter who his parents were! If he isn't skinned yet, take a photo of his tail and also his metatarsal glands. It is said that hybrids have distinctive metatarsals that are half way between a WT and a Mulie in shape. Ditto the tail.

I had him already skinned when I made the post but will go check the gland on the legs. The tail looked normal to me. I will take a pic of the glands later when the sun gets up.
