Montana 2025 draws

[8andcounting]

I had in my mind to kill a bull this year in archery in an OTC unit.

And, it's a significant time and effort commitment that I'm not sure I'm up for this year. I suppose I might not have a choice.

Just take the permit and go kill a big bull !

A twist to this is my wife also drew the same permit, and we did not put in as a party. Strange.

I’m assuming you put in for a hard to draw unit and it’s a good tag. Why not go hunt it rather than collect another point?

Or clicked 21 instead of 20 and ended up with a easily draw archery tag and not a rifle tag

Now does anyone know when the drawing statistics come out for elk? I want to know how many people put in for my permit vs last year.

I looked back at a post from last year and it looked like about 3 days after the draw they were posted on the website April 18 last year .

No archery permit for me. At least I know there’s some influencers from Bozeman that hunt the district so I can live vicariously through them by watching their YouTube videos.
