Wyoming Elk Draw
I wouldn't use the words "almost identical", but I get your point. They were all around the 5pt level because of the number of tags issued. I think it shows WY has a pretty good handle on where people hunt. (Note: Hopefully MT is taking notes.) You could look at the random pool and still get... -

Solar Energy Comments due April 18, 2024
Sort of do, actually. We are a huge minority. When any minority starts from a position of "I'm a bad ass and I'm going to fight" it turns away people that might be sympathetic to the cause and typically results in the minority getting its ass kicked. And I can think of a lot of BLM that is...- SAJ-99

Montana 518 Mountain Goat
From your location it looks like it is practically your backyard. Not much anyone can add above what you will learn from a couple of scouting trips over the summer.- SAJ-99

Bozeman: is it really that bad anymore?
Yep. Why is it that "sin" taxes in Montana seem to do quite well? https://nbcmontana.com/news/local/montana-cashes-in-on-sports-betting -

Bozeman: is it really that bad anymore?
The article shows that the flaw in property taxes in that it is a tax on an illiquid asset. Without some other income, it can't be paid. I feel more sorry for the teachers that continue to be underpaid, the police and fire that have unfilled positions (including FWP) due to pay, and the rural... -

Bozeman: is it really that bad anymore?
This seems like an ad made by the new guy who wants the Gov job saying "Look what the last guy did to you". It doesn't sound plausible without a rezoning from ag to residential, but details are lacking. Hard to feel terribly sorry for the guy because at 68 he has to work to supplement his... -

Anybody Buying Yet? Where’s the Bottom?
What did you make...$2500? This assumes you didn't close it out when it ran back about $200/sh. If you waited you could have closed with it below $140. And using RSI over the 3mos would have drove a person crazy. Timing is everything- SAJ-99

Montana General Season Structure Proposal
Agree, but the way FWP manages antelope is completely different. As Gerald says, it may just be because everyone is used to it. But then FWP should just say "that is the way the majority of MT R hunters want it";. No need for 3 days of video presentation or even the CAC at all. Maybe they should... -

Montana General Season Structure Proposal
Why do these problems not exist for antelope? The NR v. R debate doesn't seem the same. Why does FWP manage antelope one way (unit tags, pick your weapon, pick your unit) with the R being fine with it, but MD and elk are different? tradition, ie, "we have always done it that way"? Maybe thinking... -

Montana General Season Structure Proposal
I can see this point and agree with them. My only counter would be 1) The NRs didn't create the convoluted draw process by which combo tags get to be reissued at 120% of the value and 2) changes are so hard to get done. If you are willing to put up the fight, don't stop at the easy stuff. -

Montana General Season Structure Proposal
Sure, but that isn't because NR's are better shots. They pay a lot more and they plan and make a commitment to their hunt. At those prices that doe or forkie on BLM next to the road on the last day is a consolation prize. If the NR paid $20 for the tag, they may be more willing to eat it as...
