    Forest Service Reorg - Progress or Politics

    But how many states and national forests is that covering? And what about all of the on going research being conducted out of the various offices including my home state of Michigan? We have some large national forests ourselves and a fair few serious issues for flora and fauna. This move is...

    Forest Service Reorg - Progress or Politics

    Regional HQ's make a ton of sense and have been how the service has been laid out for a while, and I wouldn't be opposed to having some operations centralized in the west but in the past, that has shown to be an easy way to corrupt an agency. Having State HQ's doesn't always make sense either...

    Montana Regional Caps and Limited Entry for Mule Deer.

    FWP will eventually have to move to an LE draw for mule deer and limit the seasons. We can’t be the “opportunity” state of the west and expect things to get better.

    Its all about perspective!

    Alerting people to mental changes in their attitudes and expectations that will make something they love more beneficial to them and their heirs is never a bad thing. My greatest fear of the move are the west coast politics that are inundating the western portion of the state. I believe in...

    Who are public lands for?

    This is the map you are referencing here. Interesting that California is the most populated state and included in the 20% west side.

    Its all about perspective!

    What do you think your model of hunting will be on your new property? Will you allow selective hunting by the general public? Will this be a friends & family only hunting property? Block Management participant? No hunting? Or? Respectfully just curious.

    Idaho Elk Unit 61 - late Muzzle Loader hunt - East or West side

    I was there for 2 weeks in December. We used tires the entire time on my sxs. I meet up with Dwili and made friends with him. I hunted the west side of the hwy by Kilgore rd. All the elk we saw were up high. Lots of sign down low but they move thru the unit fast. They can be right on the road or...

    Seeking HT Wisdom - Retirement Edition

    3 years post retirement and I still sometimes get that impending doom feeling of having to go to the office. Less frequent now, but it still raises its ugly head. Wife and I just completed our annual pilgrimage across the US to visit adult Kids grandkids. We have now driven through every state...

    Bozeman: is it really that bad anymore?

    It’s great to see all those towns on the list out west. I love visiting western MT and could absolutely live there. I enjoy the quiet of the eastern part of this state. There are a surprising number of people from WA and CA starting to move out here though too. 🤔

    Relax, Everything is Going to be Okay!

    Exactly. I couldn't take it anymore so I switched. AT&T had better pricing, gave me a free phone, and has significantly better service in MN. No issues out west either thus far. So really, I can't blame them for switching. I would put more faith in Starlink to overhaul the FAA communications...

    Relax, Everything is Going to be Okay!

    My point is that it's not market based because the state somehow figures it out. That there is something fundamental with the FS in WA that prevents work. Other NFs don't seem to have the same "issue"

    Its all about perspective!

    I agree with what you’re saying Here comes the but…..be careful on not letting people taking some of the animals; smaller ones, in limited numbers..ESPECIALLY ones who are just starting out and kids!!! I personally made that mistake with my daughter and regrettably, I lost her as a hunting...

    Make the case for federalizing game species

    Maybe... I feel like you depopulate Montana and Wyoming in your hypothetical though 🤣

    Moving Trends for 2025

    I grew up in the Bible Belt in rural MO. At 19, moved in-state to take advantage of low tuition to go to University at 19. Was a lot of apprehension at leaving my small town. That passed though as was amazing suddenly being in a city 15x larger as had entertainment choices plus a lot of people...

    MSU Bobcats National Championship

    MSU and UM would have to move up together by vote of the board of regents in MT. One can't go if the other doesn't also.

    Wyoming Pref Point Purchase Time Allowed

    Thats everyone's plan but most just talk about it in the interweb......even the hard to draw tags in wyoming are difficult for residents. We just don't have points for dea thankfully. So it's a random chance but there are resident that will never draw a coveted draw tag here in some areas...

    Relax, Everything is Going to be Okay!

    I had to go back and check your post to see where we disagree. I'm not sure we do. I don't dispute the numbers, only that finding a single cause is problematic. If your claim is the FS could cut more timber, I guess I would agree. But I stand by everything else. The data on Private/Tribal...

    First pair of binoculars recommendation?

    I typically go budget to start, identify my needs once I do the damn thing for a while, then buy to those needs. Lots of idiots with a mountain of credit card debt or daddy’s money love to tell you to buy top tier so they feel better about their poor choices. I have a pair of Vortex diamondback...

    Day Trespass fees for turkeys and deer

    I'm not sure what you are getting at, but I'm NOT advocating for leasing ground. Actually, quite the opposite. I refuse to lease ground. I purchased a small farm in 2015, and hunt it and land in the west. Though not advocating for it, it seems it is the way of the future. Like it or not...

    LO Battle Ahead?

    If you don't like transferable landowner tags, don't buy into them. It doesn't mean they don't open up more opportunity for hunters to hunt there. This doesn't affect hunters playing the points game. It doesn't affect the number of tags. It doesn't allow NR to hunt the wilderness. Why do you...
