    Biologist wants to increase doe harvest in region 3 units

    And this reminds me why I don’t have social media and why I like monitoring the discussions on hunt talk, but not posting myself 🤦‍♂️

    Biologist wants to increase doe harvest in region 3 units

    You’re right, let’s keep shooting them like we have for the last 50 years until there is nothing left for anyone to hunt. I’m sure you are spot on that your family has shot a lot more deer than me. I shot plenty of younger bucks when I was a kid and am pretty selective anymore to try and let...

    Biologist wants to increase doe harvest in region 3 units

    That’s good to hear, and I hope there are more permit holders like you, but I’m concerned most blast the first one they see from the road regardless of where it is in the unit.

    Biologist wants to increase doe harvest in region 3 units

    The likes of Hogback hunter is exactly what we’re up against trying to get any meaningful change to mule deer management in this state.

    Biologist wants to increase doe harvest in region 3 units

    I’m leaving my house in two hours to go run a 12k trail run and consistently hit the gym 5 days a week, so I’m pretty sure my fitness is not an issue. I have hunted every square inch of the unit we are discussing and have never shot a deer from the road, or anywhere close to it. I don’t even...

    Biologist wants to increase doe harvest in region 3 units

    My family took two lions out of the very unit you speak of this winter, but you go ahead and keep stacking them roadside does and bucks there pal.

    Biologist wants to increase doe harvest in region 3 units

    I have communicated with the biologist and expressed my concerns. He was very responsive and we had a good conversation. His primary reason for the increase is trying to target higher deer numbers on private land. The good news is two of the unit’s permits would be private land only and I think...

    Biologist wants to increase doe harvest in region 3 units

    OK, but why increase the doe permits by 75% when the population growth in the region is flat? I just don't understand the logic. Would it really be that bad to have one region in the state see the population increase a bit? It's not like it's currently anywhere close to record highs. I...

    Biologist wants to increase doe harvest in region 3 units

    Your mindset is the problem with the current state of our mule deer populations in the state. These are three small units in Region 3, I can only guess what they are recommending in the other units.

    Biologist wants to increase doe harvest in region 3 units

    I don't post on here very often, but I wanted to spread the word on a proposed change to mule deer doe tags in a few Region 3 units for the upcoming season in hopes that you all will send a message to Biologist Adam Grove. With the state of our mule deer population trends I am shocked that he...

    Shed poacher

    I’m not saying I’m the best shed hunter out there, but if I had first pickings on a WMA for the year I would like to think I’d come out a little heavier than that guy did.

    Montana FWP Seeking Applicants For Elk Advisory Group

    Unfortunately I think the time has come for this change to take place. It’s hard to give up the opportunity we’ve been used to but with the growing population in the state and influx of out of state hunters there must be some relief provided to the resource. If the change occurs, I’ll be...

    FWP Scoping Meetings - 41 chances to show up - Starting Monday the 20th

    Extremely disappointed in the public participation in the Helena meeting tonight. 5 people total for three hunting districts. There were more fwp staff than public interested in the future of elk hunting. Very sad…

    Ibonds: 7.1% return

    So I just setup two treasury direct accounts for my two minor children. These are obviously tied to my account as they are minors. I made a really stupid mistake and entered my sons birth year when setting up my daughters account. For the life of me I can't figure out how to update her birth...

    Moose, sheep and goat MT results up

    My wife drew a West Yellowstone bison permit. She's wanted to hunt buffalo more than anything else. I understand there are many challenges with this hunt, especially for state hunters - but at least she will have a permit in hand and a chance at success. Now we must just hope for a good snow...
