Mule Deer Recommendations

I am looking for a good [location, unit, area, rancher] DIY recommendation for mule deer hunting in Wyoming.
My 72yr old dad is sitting on 4 preference points, and I am considering having him use them in the next year or two.
He is still very mobile, but won't be walking up any 10,000+ foot mountains.

I guess I am looking for guidance on a rifle draw with 4 or 5 points, for a nice respectable wall hanger muley.
We are from Iowa and regularly hunt whitetails, so I would really like his deer points to be used for something he doesn't already have.

My hunting partner and I are sitting on 5 and 6 points respectively and are not planning on muleys for at least a few years yet. We are saving them for a rifle trophy hunt, something like region G or equivalent.

Thanks for any advice.

For what he is looking for start taking references on outfitters. It's pretty unlikely that you will be able to get what you are looking for done on a true DIY hunt. Your best bet will be a reputable outfitter on the Eastern side of the state with plenty of access to large tracts of land.
