Reduction in number of NR deer licenses

[Eric Albus]

I just don't get the fear legislators have about people whining about tag increases. In this hyper-partisan age, exactly zero people are going to change their vote, even if tag prices double. Who cares if there's rumbling on FB, just ignore it.

I know of one who isn’t afraid to jack the R price up..
You can’t believe the pushback I got when I suggested it last session.

Are there BMA’s that aren’t funded, or are told no you can’t be a part of the program, because of a lack of funding? How do they determine which BMAs to cut when there is a funding shortfall?

Sign-in box harvest report/comment card that is the hunters portion of the permission slip and that is almost never filled out and returned at the end of a hunt.

Really!?! I don’t know anyone that doesn’t fill it out.

What a bunch of lazy tit suckers. It takes less time to fill out than taking a piss.

The majority of people i talk to or hunt with come home with those slips. To be honest, I think I’ve filled one out and returned to the box when I was successful, and another that I had to pass the box on foot before the vehicle anyway. I always write “Thank you for allowing access”.

Show us your best Montana bucks preferably public land bucks. 5 weeks of rut hunting and no limitations to where anyone goes has taken its toll.

I understand your frustration @DFS but the rut isn’t 5 weeks long. We have a 5 week rifle season but the deer aren’t rutting the entire time..

Do deer move more at the beginning of October or the end? Bucks were chasing the end of October this year. The rut isn’t static we are hunting mule deer with long range rifles when they are most vulnerable.

Short October general season with limitations to where people can go. Especially nonresidents.

I'd say breeding definitely effects 3.5 to 4 weeks of your guys' rifle season if not all 5. The "rut" is a pretty loose term imo.

If you’re hunting a BMA, take the 2 phukin seconds to fill out the card. Whether you’re road hunting or jerking off in a field.
