    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    SOME resident hunters around Kalispell are just as much to blame as nonresidents along with the FWP. A guy posted on FB last fall that his 13 year old daughter shot six deer last season. I made a comment about it, and got hammered for not supporting the youth. Think what kind of "hunter" that...

    Whitetail also are significantly higher in Crook and Weston Counties. WY Game and Fish cut tags in 2023 50-60% on deer and pronghorn, mostly due to winter kill and the previous drought

    Hunting Mule deer in the rut is very similar to Hunting bighorn sheep in the rut, they are the dumbest critter around. I believe Montana is one of the few states that allow both hunts to occur during the active breeding season. You move those Hunting seasons outside of the mating season it will...

    School Me on Hunting In Grizz Country

    I primarily hunt alone, and some in very high grizzly country. I usually take my hound Wylie with me and he just hunts around while I'm walking, and I keep him close when near elk. I would really have a quick plan on getting all your meat 200 yards or so away from the kill site, even if you...

    The Rinella Effect

    Could there be anything in the BMA program which could increase the payment for landowners that allowed cow elk hunting? Seems like payment rates need to increase to make it worth the hassle of enrollment.

    That makes sense, and they are issuing way too many tags

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I agree with you about not increasing tags and they already issue over 2600 tags and I bet half of those elk do not live on FS for any significant portion of the year. It's such a vast area and after a good amount of hunting pressure they head to private. It's not a tag issue but an access...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    Concerning the Elk harvest, I seriously doubt if much hunting will occur in Oct on private lands. Something I have heard others say (and agree) is having a separate any elk tag valid in these over objective districts that is only valid on private for Oct or Nov, it would most likely push the Elk...

    Bozeman: is it really that bad anymore?

    Our house near C Falls went up 500% in 10 years. We bought a 10 acre parcel and built on it. It doubled from 2021 to 2023. Other properties in Lake County (raw land) went up 300%. It's not right. They still have to pass bond levy to put a new roof on the high school. Or the students may have...
