The mule deer on the Kaibab are known for their migratory behavior, moving between higher elevations in summer and lower elevations in winter. This migration can concentrate deer in certain areas during specific times of the year, increasing the chances of successful hunting during these migration periods. This outfitter knows these patterns and when and where to be as the deer adjust to the seasons. They have harvested bucks at the very top of the mountain, as well as the valley floors.
The Kaibab National Forest is considered a great place to hunt mule deer for many reasons. It provides suitable habitat for mule deer, with a mix of forested areas, grasslands, and scrublands that offer abundant food sources like browse plants, shrubs that mule deer rely on for sustenance. The forest spans a range of altitudes, creating diverse terrain that mule deer love. Different elevations offer varied vegetation and cover options, giving hunters opportunities to find deer in different environments. The forest's management practices, such as controlled burns and habitat management, have positively impacted mule deer populations by promoting the growth of nutritious vegetation and creating favorable conditions for the deer.
The Kaibab National Forest is known for its stunning landscapes and natural beauty. Hunting in such a picturesque environment makes the overall experience for clients one to remember!
