When nonresidents can peruse the whole state during November and shoot anything that’s legal it’s a huge issue. Cut em just like ND does. I don’t need to look in the mirror I advocate for wildlife not hunters.
Block management.. mainly a friends and family deal. Conservation easements that don’t allow access. More deer on the landscape certainly haven’t seen that. There is a lot of funding that is getting blown in Montana and people still happily sign up for it, as the deer numbers crash. @NDGuy...
Most of the states I see here out hunting have nothing to offer, except funding. That funding is going to take things right to the brink so what are we doing. Mtgunner got to go on a rant so I guess I can too.
We will take things right to the brink too with the units going LE in region 4 for deer. I’ve tried to steer fwp from the train wreck but they are going full steam ahead. My experiences are anecdotal, “we’ve been here before”.
Paging @Forkyfinder . The nonresident free for all is bad. The resident western Montana free for all is just is bad and I’ve readjusted the line of western Montana to Hysham running north and south. Until western Montana hunters are forced to pick a district and meaningful nonresident caps are...
