    Thermal recovery drones?

    As of now they are legal in MT. Secondly, just like a gun, car, or a hammer, they can be used for bad or good. If you want to debate drone ethics, please start a different thread. I am only interested in finding more info on them as a potential to help recover downed or wounded game. If you...

    Thermal recovery drones?

    Obviously some could do that, but they are also a great way to recover animals that might otherwise not be recovered. However, the point of this post isn't to debate the ethical merits of a thermal drone. it is to see if anyone might have used one and what they would recommend purchasing.

    Thermal recovery drones?

    have really enjoyed watching the thermal drone deer recoveries on YT. I am a proficient tracker, and believe that tracking and recoveries to be a strong suit of my hunting, but I can definitely see the benefit of a thermal drone for those poor hit scenarios. Has anyone on here bought one...

    Huge bodied Buck

    I don't, but I think he was well north of 250 for sure! I'm 6'2" and about 260, and he was bigger than me.

    My kiddo's 2024 Buck

    Yeah man.... She is such a mild kid, so she always surprises me when she toughs it out like this. Her older sister, who is pretty strong herself, was telling me recently that "Grace is really strong Dad!". I didn't believe her, so I had her and arm wrestle Grace along with my youngest (a boy)...

    My kiddo's 2024 Buck

    Out of my 3 kids, I always thought my daughter Grace would be the least likely to really enjoy hunting. Gracie is a very sweet, gentle, kind, and deep thinking girl, and even though I exposed her to hunting at a young age, I always figured it wasn't going to be part of her personality. Turns out...

    The decline of western hunting is sad indeed. Some absolute Giants were taken in Western MT back in the day….

    That is where I disagree, what are you basing that on? I don’t believe you can definitively say that. Start with NR’s first and then go from there. If residents also need to be subsequently impacted, then let’s have that discussion at that time. But implement changes that affect nonresidents...

    Yeah, like I said earlier, you really don’t have a clue. That’s OK ignorance is bliss for many people. Do you live here? If not, I don’t really care what your grand pappy did or didn’t do, said or didn’t say. And honestly, if you don’t live here, I really could care less about your opinion on...

    Lol…. Well back to the difficulties of living here, that’s why I have a $10,000 generator sitting in my driveway.

    Well, I guess you don’t socialize with very many native Montanans then.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I think we’re looking at two sides of the same coin. Yes it is sparsely populated much in part because of the inherent difficulties of living in this state. It is much more difficult to live more so than a place like Colorado, and those difficulties are the very thing that keeps it from being...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    INMT, You clearly didn’t read the snarky comments, or have some reading comprehension problems. What I’m saying is that as a resident of this state it isn’t like I get to live in Sunny San Diego and then come enjoy the benefits of hunting in this state like many nonresidents do. What I am saying...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I did bring some ideas and you started getting all hot and bothered by it. Like I said, it’s simple, reduce nonresident tags, or at least make them pick units and put in some boundaries (like a season reduction for them) and see what that produces before you affect residents. That’s my idea. If...

    Windbag gypsy, don’t know why you have such a hard on for me, but how does me posting a video affect you and why does that bother you so much? It was a mature, intelligent deer that I caught in a vulnerable position. So I should not have shot that deer, is that what you’re saying? I worked very...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I spent over $800 each year between me and my kids tags and applications. That’s not a small amount of money for someone to spend on resident tags. However, to your guys point, yes, I would be fine if they increased the price for me as a Resident. As to the snarky crappy winter comments….. You...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    Here is some finger pointing: I believe the real issue lies squarely on MT FWP.... They are supposed to be "Wildlife Managers", but have become a land holder/land acquisition agency that is hooked on money like an addict to coke. The actual wildlife matters much less than the bottom line.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I'm not pointing fingers. I'm simply stating that, as a tax paying MT resident, who also spends a significant amount of money for tags (Multi species apps for myself and my 3 kids) I believe the NR's opportunities should be limited before taking aim at limiting residents opportunities. If that...
