Frank Sullivan of Oklahoma, took this nice mulie on the 3rd evening of his hunt. Not to far away from where his hunting partner, Robert St. Pierre, took his buck.

Frank was sitting in an elevated blind about 1/4 mile from some irriagated alfalfa fields.  These blinds make it easier to see over the mesquite brush while glassing.

A little before dark, Frank spotted a group of bucks working their way towards one of the fields.  These bucks were a long ways off and Frank was running out of time since it was getting close to sunset.

He got out of his blind and took off trying to intercept the deer.  By the time Frank made it to the field, the deer were already out in the middle.  Frank made an outstanding 450 yard shot to collect his trophy mule deer.

Great shot Frank!

Robert St. Pierre of Oklahoma, took this nice mule deer on the first day of his hunt.  We were sitting on the edge of an alfalfa field that was being heavily used by deer.

About 30 minutes before sunset, 20 does poured out of the mesquite brush into the field.   We could see a couple of bucks come right up to the edge of the brush line, but were reluctant to go into the field.  They were just out of range and stayed back in the brush, so Robert eased up towards them and waited.  One of the bucks finally jumped the fence and trotted into the field right at sunset.  He was 300 yards when Robert put him down.
