A Mule Deer Retrospective: Vintage Photos and Memorabilia from the Boone and Crockett Club Archives

Sportsmen with an eye for the good ol' days of big game hunting in North America will delight in B&C's third installment of its visually stunning Retrospective Series â€” A Mule Deer Retrospective. This latest book focuses on the iconic mule deer of the West with hundreds of vintage photographs, chapters about historical mule deer hunting areas, and detailed accounts of dozens of noteworthy mule deer trophies recognized by B&C.

No one can deny that the Golden Era of mule deer hunting happened decades ago with nearly 80% of the top 50 mule deer recognized by the Boone and Crockett Club being taken before 1976 â€” some taken as far back as the 1800s. A Mule Deer Retrospective has a special section dedicated to these historic bucks, which include such well-known trophies as Ed Broderâ€™s Worldâ€™s Record non-typical mule deer taken near Chip Lake, Alberta, in 1926, and Doug Burrisâ€™s Colorado King taken in 1972, which still reigns as the Worldâ€™s Record typical mule deer.

A Mule Deer Retrospective also features chapters about historic mule deer haunts like Arizonaâ€™s Kaibab National Forest where the legendary Jack Oâ€™Connor hunted, plus an in depth look at the changing landscape of mule deer hunting destinations throughout the past century. Also of note to readers is the enormous quantity of non-typical bucks compared to typical deer. Amazingly, in the early days of records-keeping only 25% of mule deer entries were typical deerâ€”seemingly the definition of a â€œkeeper trophy buckâ€ changed somewhere along the way.

Typically speaking, mule deer hunters are bit more fanatical about the game they pursue than most of their sportsmen brotherhood. With the vast amount of photographs, entertaining correspondence, and historical trophy data, A Mule Deer Retrospective will not disappoint even the most discerning hunter!
