    Bitterroot Mule Deer 261/270

    Well, I think I still got a good shot at a big ole mountain buck. Better than a general unit anyway. Even if the unit was whole hunting the farmlands doesn't interest me much.

    Deer - lets see em

    Pretty unique WT buck I shot back in 2019 in late November way up high on the mountain. Thoughts on it being a hybrid?

    did you have a moose tag in there? I heard it used to be one of the best moose units in the lower 48 not all that long ago

    Bitterroot Mule Deer 261/270

    Those are some great deer and stories, thanks for sharing! The biggest buck I've ever shot was 145ish back in 2017(I think this was net but I can't remember). You guys should tell me what you think it would score. I'm excited to see a higher percentage of mature bucks on this hunt, but like...

    Bitterroot Mule Deer 261/270

    Do you think the swingset bucks on the farmlands used to move more when it was all one unit? Just curious on how you think it changed 261? I'm not interested in shooting a deer between sub-developments so how did the unit split affect the public land hunting in 261 iyo?

    Bitterroot Mule Deer 261/270

    Did you end up hunting the public at all? Seems like a lot of the big, good looking, private ranches are owned by people like Mildenberger or have out-of-state tax addresses both of which I feel like are not even worth the effort to ask. I feel like smaller private land pieces aren't really...

    Bitterroot Mule Deer 261/270

    Yeah you’ll still plenty of big deer that are 3 points. And I think it just means one side has to have no more than 3 points. Not totally sure on this but FWP will contact you and give you very specific instructions on what legal and what’s not. You’ll still be able to kill a giant I reckon. Let...

    Bitterroot Mule Deer 261/270

    There is a few outfitters you can find with just a google search, but they are pricey and looks like private ranch hunting. I’m local so I’ll have time to scout and figure it out. depending on how much time you have I think you’ll have no problem killing a 160-180 deer in 270 on public if you...

    Bitterroot Mule Deer 261/270

    Yeah when I looked up my draw results I had to to triple check because I thought there was a mistake haha. Do you have a picture of the buck your buddy shot on public? Did he shoot it in November? I'm a little nervous about access back into the mountains in late November if we get heavy snow. Id...

    Bitterroot Mule Deer 261/270

    Hi everyone! Hope the draw was in your favor this year! I certainly felt lucky when I saw I pulled a 261 muley tag with only 6 points! I live in Missoula and work in Ravalli county so I’ll have plenty of time to scout and explore the unit! I know 261/270 are often considered Montana’s best...

    Rafting the Main Salmon River, Idaho

    Does it seem like the elk come down and winter in the canyon? I’m curious to try to hunt the north side of the river in early November.

    N Idaho Whitetail

    What unit are you hunting? I'm looking at getting an Idaho deer or elk tag on December 1 for next season and figured even if I'm way in the back of the line I could still pick up a whitetail only tag. Looking at the document online of how many tags they plan to give to NRs It seems like they...

    Idaho Unit 8A Whitetail

    Thanks for the info! I'm looking at trying to get a non-resident deer and elk tag in Idaho this year and do the December 1 online thing. Even if I am in the back I figured I would probably still be able to pick up a whitetail only tag and 8A has a lot of tags for non-residents. Do you have any...

    Idaho Draw Results 2022

    How was the unit 52 late-season elk tag? I'm looking to apply this year but don't have much to go off besides just draw results and harvest stats. Were you able to harvest a bull and was it on public? I got plenty of info on Montana hunting and draw strategy if you ever was any info up here.
