My thoughts get filed right into the public comment bin. But I will likely go and watch.

Everything’s fine guys. Just tie those boots up tighter and get out there

Hunter satisfaction surveys are excellent and counts/estimates are at a high level. Can’t argue with real data.

My last public comment/complaint to that group of clowns was August 2015. It doesn’t matter what you say.

Basically it’s like they are advertising for people to come shoot mule deer in region 7

I hunted 4 days during the rut, hiked in a few miles, and saw plenty of does, but more trucks than bucks, and nothing bigger than a forky.

Are there some bucks waaaay back in there? Yeah, probably. I guess. But are they accessible to the average Joe who has to hike in, find one, and pack one out in a day, or a weekend? No.

I’d like to add a couple questions to the Hunter satisfaction surveys- how many years have you hunted Montana deer, and what was your average BAC during the hunt?
