    Extreme hunting pressure in region 7.

    NR adult draws a license and the youth can purchase the same license OTC at the game and fish office iirc.

    Are you shooting a fall away rest that is cable driven? I.e. the cable is what pulls the rest into the vertical position when you draw the bow?

    If the proposal were to pass there wouldn’t be 34k people at the same time since elk is in november ?

    The gear pile is cool and all but the wall plate on the electrical outlet is awesome.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    For residents I think this is true but the nonresident side does concern me. Example being, currently If I draw a big game combo and don’t draw my permit I still keep my general deer tag even though I haven’t used it in nearly a decade. How many guys will keep their deer tag going forward or...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I haven’t made it all the way through the day 1 presentations yet but it sure seems like FWP already has a direction the ship is headed. I hope I’m wrong.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    Im assuming this was a “CWD management” decision. If rut hunting mule deer and liberal harvest is the cure for CWD then Montana is well ahead of the curve.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    Not exactly. I’m saying get rid of the combo and set acceptable quotas for each species and manage them separately. I think your current proposal could possibly add NR hunters as an unintended consequence. Example being guys returning their deer portion to be resold to another NR because they...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    In regards to impacts on funding I think some revenue could be generated by actually splitting/getting rid of the NR big game combo. Charge the current seperate price for a deer tag And the price for an elk tag. Sell preference points for general deer license and general elk license. Once...

    I seriously doubt you are gonna cut success rates in half by moving the season to October.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I read this argument being thrown out today - (paraphrasing) What does not hunting buck mule deer in November do to improve overall populations? It will/should improve the age structure but will not have a significant impact on overall numbers until the bucks start birthing fawns.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I don’t recall whether or not the no answers were being lumped into the satisfied percentage. Crappy if it was. I did a brief search and found a survey done last season. I don’t think this is the one I recall reading but the results appear similar...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I think the battle with FWP will be their “hunter satisfaction surveys” that are used as a crutch. IIRC roughly 60% of resident hunters were satisfied with their deer hunts and around 70% said that rut hunting and the opportunity to hunt mule deer bucks on thanksgiving were important to them. To...
