    Last Day Buck

    Howdy gang. I killed this mule deer buck the last morning on the last day. It was a cold, windy, foggy day in SW Montana! Certainly no monster, but I am very proud of this guy. Hiked in 2-1/2 miles first thing to an area I had seen deer. I was looking for a stand of timber to get out of the...

    How to say Thank You?

    I am one of the lucky hunters to draw a 700 pronghorn tag this year. I have never hunted in the southern corner of the state, so I was asking around work for ideas. One of my coworkers has a very good friend that owns a large ranch and said he would ask if I could have access for a few days...

    870 Pump Deer Gun

    I have an 870 pump (3 inch shells) that I"d like to dedicate to hunting only deer. I plan to mount an inexpensive 4 power scope and shoot slugs. Does anyone know....is it that simple? Do I need to do anything to the gun before I do this? Also, suggestions for deer load slugs? Thanks all.

    Forest Road Closures

    Does the Montana Fish & Game supply a list of forest service roads closures? I know shortly before hunting season many of the forest service roads are closed, which I support, but it would be nice to know which roads and when. Thanks all.

    Gifting a gun

    My dad lives in Washington state and has offered to me, as a gift, a 357 Mag pistol he no longer uses. Upon receiving this gift here in Montana, how and where do I register it to be legal? Or do I need all registering completed before taking possession? Anyone know?

    First aid/fire start

    This time of year I can't help go through my gear, build new camp furniture, look at pictures, etc. So today I was updating my first aid kit I keep in my pack. It got me wondering what my fellow hunters keep in their packs, and what they keep for fire start??

    MT hunt regs ?

    If this is a dumb question, please be nice...:) I printed the 73 page DEER/ELK/ANTELOPE District Bonus Point Stats Report. I can't figure out all the different breakdowns for individual districts. For example, in the report it lists 4 different "districts" for district 380. It lists...

    Lots of wolves? Some wolves? No wolves?

    I recently had a conversation with an old hunting friend on the topic of wolves. He is angry with Idaho/Montana etc, reintroducing wolves into certain areas and feels all wolves should again be elliminated. It made me wonder.....do most hunters feel this way? I personally like the idea of...

    Idaho's Selway

    I hunted elk in Idaho's Selway five years ago. Since then I have moved further and further south trying to stay ahead of the ever expanding wolf population. The past two years I hunted Idaho's middle fork and took a nice bull last year. Again we will hunt the middle fork this year, although...
