Montana draw 2026
Made it back inside before our daughter started crying, called her teenage brother to come over and help her find the deer and had it gutted laying in the shade when I got home from work.- Gerald Martin

Montana draw 2026
That was her take. Funny thing about it was that she was holding our 6 month old daughter at the time and in her socks when the buck started eating tomatoes. She put our daughter in her crib, got her bow out from under the bed, opened the front door on the other side of the house and stepped...- Gerald Martin

Montana draw 2026
One year during archery season my wife shot a buck that came into the yard and was eating tomatoes off a potted plant on our back porch. She snuck around the house and shot him through the lungs. He still had a tomato in his mouth when he died at the edge of the yard.- Gerald Martin

Fresh Tracks Weekly - Vote In Your Primary Election
All I know is that surely I can’t be the only one disappointed that sometime in the Highline primary election Albus didn’t send out a flyer showing him hugging a wolf with rainbows floating out from the wolf’s posterior….😀- Gerald Martin

Iowa governor race- Montana connection
If you are on the same page as him on social issues and philosophy of governance then he’s probably going to have more in common with you as a hunter than a candidate linked to Americans for Prosperity. That’s coming from a person whose ballots are usually more red than blue.- Gerald Martin

Anything connected to Americans for prosperity in MT is prosperity = money. Resources = commodities. Nothing is worth anything until you sell it and folks who make the most money deserve the most access to resources.- Gerald Martin

We have an access issue and a quality management issue. Both exist and solving one doesn’t solve the other.- Gerald Martin

Lawsuit Filed to Cement Legality of Corner Crossing in Montana
I’ve seen that sentiment in the eyes of folks who are making policy decisions reflected towards individuals on opposite sides of a contentious issue. If I think I’ve learned anything from my limited engagement on policy debate and decision making at FWP meetings and legislative hearings it’s...- Gerald Martin

Lawsuit Filed to Cement Legality of Corner Crossing in Montana
Yet, the quality of hunting on the public adjacent to MPG property comparative to the proposed acreage to be swapped was quoted as a reason to oppose the land swap. I agree that the quality of hunting/ hunting management can be a red herring. In this case the management policies of the MPG...- Gerald Martin

Lawsuit Filed to Cement Legality of Corner Crossing in Montana
As a tangent to this topic, hunters who are wanting access to inholdings of public within private property because the quality of hunting is better there due to the private land access policies need to ask themselves some hard questions. Why isn’t the quality of hunting on public property...- Gerald Martin

1800 acres for 8100 acres. A four to one swap in favor of the public trust in terms of acreage. Opponents say the 8400 acres don’t contain nearly as good of quality of habitat or hunting opportunity as the 1800 acres offers. A few observations and questions. Habitat can be rehabilitated...- Gerald Martin
