    Tire Chains for an Elk Hunt

    I would suggest getting them in SW Montana when you arrive. You can pick them up almost anywhere, Napa, Les Schwab, Murdochs, Quality Supply, etc. and get the correct size to fit your tires, all four, and chain tighteners.

    Scent free

    Do not waste your money on any of these products, clothing or sprays. Repeated scientific studies have shown, as would be expected, that none of them work.

    MT HD 316 anybody been there lately?

    I believe Warren Johnson outfitters camp may be in unit 316, possibly 313. The story I've heard is that year before last they didn't shoot an elk in the back country camp. Not sure if its true or not but the backcountry early rifle hunt is a fraction of what it used to be.

    Montana Habitat Funding in question

    Here is a link to the Helena Independent Record with an opinion piece by Mark Robbins of United Property Owners of Montana. Great effort at spreading misinformation: http://helenair.com/news/opinion/legislature-gets-it-right-on-habitat-funding/article_945885dd-28e6-5b6b-944c-443d2a8db9be.html

    GPS accuracy

    I think you'll probably be OK. I believe the gpshuntingmaps will show ownership down to 40 acres maybe, so if you zoom in really tight you will likely not see ownership names at all or may have to pan around to find the owners name

    Lead Bullets and Poisoning

    There was a recent study in ND that examined blood lead levels of people who ate game shot by lead bullets. This study was conducted after a radiologist examined 100 packages of hunter shot game. About 60% contained lead fragments. The ND study found that the people who ate game regularly had...

    Montana Grizzlys

    Map looks pretty good except in the northern purple zone the map should extend a fair bit further south and east. I have seen numerous photos, video and have knowledge of griz much closer to Helena and to the south and east of town. These are frequent observations not random wanderings.

    The Montana Slaughter

    I think that most of us like Montana's season, trophy units, etc. basically the way they are. I just don't get the point of killing boat loads of spikes in some of the trophy managed units instead of letting them grow up to be trophy bulls and offering more bull tags instead. Some would never...

    The Montana Slaughter

    I only wish that our existing trophy units we managed a bit differently. I've not drawn any of these units but if we we're shooting so many spikes in units like the Elkhorns and 339 it seems like there would be alot more big bulls to offer more permits. I like to hunt big bulls every year, too...

    The Montana Slaughter

    Greenhorn it probably was friday, would have said hello but you looked like you were on a mission. I had 13 points this year in Arizona, I drew the last non-resident tag. No other field pics of my Montana bull. Wish FWP would manage out trophy units like Arizona does or at least closer to...

    The Montana Slaughter

    Arizona hunt was absolutely amazing. Passed 20-25 bulls as large or larger than the one I killed. Really wanted to notch the tag on one of three bulls I was after didn't make it happen but came close. Best hunt I've ever had.

    The Montana Slaughter

    Thats my broken bull. He is/was a 7X. I am no expert but rough scored him just doubling the intact right side and he doubles at about 386. I hunt hard when I can, generally when I don't have older family or younger kids along. This bull was the result of some hard hunts with a buddy from...
