Man I don’t know where I go but it must be the wrong spot. I spend a lot of time in Region 6 the first week or second week of season typically and yeah I see a few hunters but nothing like is being described here. I think last year was the first time I arrived at a spot on state ground I...
Great discussion. Appreciate the different perspectives. I’ve always said it’s a really good thing birds don’t have antlers. Bird hunters are so cordial. Not that I don’t kill antlered stuff!
I’m not a dog trainer, but I do run 7 dogs. I just like hunting dogs. I started going to MT from KS...
I'm torn whether this is good or bad. I do get it. Crummy NRs like me bringing 5-6 dogs and stomping around pushing out residents with no dog or maybe one dog, basically ruining opportunity for residents during what many consider the best part of the season. On the other hand there are 30...
Ok. Now this is Senate Bill 514. It has passed the Senate and now moves to the House for consideration. It essentially directs FWP to allow residents to hunt 10-days sooner than non-residents on publicly accessible lands.

I'm not a Montanan but I spend some time there each fall. I follow our own legislative activities in my own state, but don't fully understand the process in Montana. LC3901 pushes the NR opening day back 10-days for all upland species with the exception of mountain grouse. What is an LC bill...
Is the opportunity missing because there is no access or because there are only limited birds? I should mention, I won’t pay trespass fees…it’s just a personal thing.
I’m not sure about the Halo collars but we run 7 SpotOn collars with the GPS fence and they work great. Their customer service is great too. A few of our colllars are 3 years old and holding up well.
I really like my Orvis Strap vest. I don’t know if it’s possible to wear it out. I have had mine for 5 years and other than gun oil and blood stains there is nothing wrong with it. I hunt in it all over the country and it gets about 50-60 days in the field each year.
