I'll be hunting mule deer next week on a 5000 acre ranch that borders Guadalupe Mountains NP. What's an average representative buck going to score? I've seen a few pictures of some bucks taken and they don't really compare to some of the deer I've seen come out of some of the sandier country to the east.

A 150 class buck in that country would be a really nice deer. We hunted the Valentine area for almost 10 years and most of them we killed were this size, with an occasional one in the 165 class. Good luck.

Good hunting to you. That's very cool country out there.
