On Today’s Rokcast episode, Robby joins Dustin “The King of Energy Drinks” Wittwer of the Finding Backcountry podcast.

Dustin is passionate about helping mule deer and is willing to consider all sides of the issues.  Although they don’t always agree, they each learn from these discussions and are better stewards of our mule deer resource.

Today, they’re discussing the changes that the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources is proposing for equipment restrictions, creating mule deer study units, and more.

Utah is on the forefront of trying to bring a balance to the wants of the mule deer hunting public, from the family who’s happy with any deer on the game pole to the most selective big buck hunters.

It can be a difficult and complicated process but everyone who is interested in helping mule deer should participate.

The public, both Utah residents and non-residents, can comment on these proposals on the Utah Division of Wildlife Resources website on the public comments webpage here

https://wildlife.utah.gov/feedback.html

You can address your comments to any of the 5 Utah Regions or directly to the Utah Wildlife board.

So be a good deer hunter by keeping an open mind, listening to today’s episode, and giving Utah your feedback before the Utah Wildlife Board votes on the proposals on Tuesday November 28th.

Travis and Robby are back with what is probably their final mule deer hunt wrap of the year.  They talk big bucks, mule deer rut timing, migration, hunting high and hunting low, 30” two-points, and how much attitude determines the outcome of a hunt. They also debate the topics of eating chicken guts and wearing ear plugs.



Also for fun, jump over to Rokslide’s Instagram page and look at the Reel dated 11/9/23.  That is the buck Robby passed from today’s episode that Robby and Travis debate on the score. Was it a big buck? Was Robby smart to pass, or should he have shot?  Chime in on the comments section there.



They also touch on gear that made this hunt:

Outdoorsmans Glassing System here



https://outdoorsmans.com/pages/stability



and a whole bunch more discussion on hunting public land big bucks.
