Bowhunters - not a big impact?

Bowhunters are scumbags!

Just wait until you hear about late season cow hunters

To compensate, Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks proposed issuing only 500 archery-only pronghorn hunting permits in Region 3

What does this mean since it’s a statewide 900 tag? I understand the following portion about certain districts in 3 not being eligible for the archery only hunt opportunity but how are they limiting the 500 in those areas? Call-in quota?

It means the statewide 900 tag won’t be valid in Region 3 anymore. Region 3 now has its own region specific permit with a quota of 500. That’s 500 permits, not a harvest quota.

Probably has a lot to do with being "lucky"

Even at that distance animals can jump the string.
Bowhunting is just a poor way to kill critters.

As my friend @mtmuley says, it ain't for
everybody. BowHunting isn't the enemy.People who make s***** decisions while bow hunting is. Just like guns don't kill people, criminals do.

I love bowhunting, but it takes a big toll in MT, particularly for antelope and elk. I’m amazed at how many guys I talk to that don’t seem to have any concern about flinging arrows and wounding. Im not going to be a total hypocrite. I’ve wounded before with quick shot opportunities I shouldn’t have taken and felt pretty shitty about it.

Bowhunting is awesome. This topic isn’t saying otherwise.
