Western Mule Deer Hunt
« on: October 17, 2007, 01:14:11 PM »
Does anyone know of a good outfitter for a his and hers mule deer hunt either in New Mexico or Colorado?  I want to take my wife out west next year on a mule deer hunt.  It is going to be her first trip out west and I want it to be a great experience for her.  She shoots a 7mm-08 and I shoot a 7mm Mag. Any ideas would be appreciatied.

I know you asked about NM & CO, but you might consider NV, Secret Pass Outfitters (www.secretpassoutfitters.com) has lots of husband/wife, father/son/daughter, even grandparents hunting. They hunt a huge private lease, hunt on horses, and have mainly repeat business. Price is pretty reasonable, too.

You have the ideal weapons.  If you reload, stoke up your wife's 7-08 with either 140 NP's or 145 Grand Slams and you'll be good to go.  I've never fired anything other than 160's thru my 7mag.  Again NPs or GSes.
