I taught Hunter Ed for 17 years in an eastern states before moving to MT. It was rewarding and I met many nice people.
One day I received a letter from a town sheriff that had accompanied his grandson to our course. BTW, he had not told us he was the town sheriff from the next community over. He...
If you hunt the unlimited sheep zones be ready to see lots of hunters. Although, in these zones I have seen some really clunker goats. Had a Billy walk within 200 yards of our camp. Not shy, didn’t run, just walked on his way. Nice goat. But my buddy had one of the unlimited Sheep tags. I took...
Have a cousin who is a prepper. He has boasted to too many regarding his cache of supplies, ammo, firearms etc. Frankly he will invaded early when the SHTF. MTG
Interesting enough is that I took the survey and have never hunted or fished in this WMA. Most of the middle questions were about this WMA. Let’s face it, it’s happening throughout Montana. MTG
