I have a friend that bought a young mule to deer hunt with back when running dogs was legal here. He shot a deer one day and the mule did OK until he tried to load the deer on it. After a rodeo they took the deer out by atv. A few days later same thing. Next time they saw a deer the rodeo started as soon as the deer was spotted. Friend vowed to break said mule for deer hunting but eventually gave up. miles
