The first tip I can give you is once you get to Utah get your rifle out and start practicing. Practice as much as you can out to 300 yards or so. It will make a huge difference come fall. Also look into to getting a good set of binoculars.

Start hiking. The more deer you watch the more you will learn. The hiking will get you ready for when you have to bring him out on your back.

If you start now you will be ready come hunting season. Also mule deer are harder to pattern than whitetail. They will frequent the same areas so scouting prior to the hunting season is key.

All tags are on a draw system if you go for a northern tag you get it almost everytime as far as the deer in your back i would shoot them with my digital camera and leave them there to come and look at i have deer in my back yard and my kids like to look at them also it wouldnt be much of a hunt to me i like to get out on the mountain with friends and family good luck

get a good pair of hiking boots as soon as you get here. then spend all spring and summer breaking them in looking for good spots. like nonya said just like everyone else does. there are very few of us out here that use treestands there are a few though. oh yes i forgot make sure that you get in shape because the elevation change will take its toll on you at first.

All that info sounds great, but where the heck is "Veyo" Utah"?

I've lived here 41 years and never heard of that!!
