    2023 Montana Draw!!!!

    I know a guy that has an additional point for every single thing he applies for compared to what he had last October. I have photographic proof of it. Don't tell FWP. Everybody else seeing this too?

    2023 Montana Draw!!!!

    Simple, FWP has to run enough simulations in their office until they reach maximum screw ups in the results and they will come out with those as the (first) final result.

    Two Dogs Killed by Wolves in Colorado Less Than 24-Hours Apart 3-17-23

    This is going to become a very common occurance there. Happens in Montana all the time, just doesn't make the news and we have less people and dogs. Wolves target dogs as they see them as competition. Maybe this will make some of the voters realize that wolves are not the warm fuzzy pup...

    He did well. Ended up third.

    There is no hunt. It's SLAUGHTER!

    There is a billboard saying the exact same thing in Livingston. Saw it this weekend when I was there for wrestling. Just rolled my eyes.

    SB 497 - Attack on Stream Access

    Such BS that there is so much trickery involved in the legislature in bills like this. Hurry up and push unpopular stuff through so nobody can voice their opinion against it.

    Trail cams on public land: how is that ok?

    Montana Block Management Program

    This is certainly true. I have called at the first second the time was available for a popular local BMA. I was very clear about the time and place I wanted to hunt and told it was open and I could hunt and my name was put down. About 30 minutes later I got a call back saying the time was...

    who has heard a mountain lion scream

    I was hiking in on an old logging road around Bozeman when I was in college. It was still dark but just starting to get light. I turned off my headlamp and the next thing I know I hear the scream. Turned on my headlamp. Looked up the hill and there were 2 kittens on top of a deer on the...

    Trail cams on public land: how is that ok?

    I set out several trail cameras every year, some in areas I don't even hunt. I enjoy the pictures, enjoy seeing the animals and what is out there. It is fascinating some of the things you can capture. Last year alone I had bobcat, mountain lion, grouse, wolverine, bear, elk, deer, moose, fox...

    My latest for MeatEater: The sordid tale of Letterman Buck

    Does anybody know where this buck is now? At one time it was right in the front door of the Helena office by the capital. It is no longer there. The pictures make it look like it could be at their MT Wild facility by Spring Meadow. Anybody know?

    I made a free draw odds site for Montana

    Nice stab at this. I think for it to be useful for most folks and to keep people coming back you need the estimated draw for the coming year. I calculate this for myself using the FWP spreadsheet. Basically I assume that everybody that put in the previous year (and did not draw) will put in...

    Draft out on "Revise FWP super tag program laws"

    I just don't see the point of this. If every tag holder elk, deer, A and B tags gets one entry for their purchase of their tag I think that will do 2 things. One your chances of drawing a super tag will go WAY down (its already really low). Because of this I think less people will actually...

    When you realize you're not cool anymore . . .

    When the doorbell rings at my house and the kids go running to find out who it is, because its rarely somebody looking for me anymore and usually for them.

    Opinion pieces like this bug me

    If they are going to repair what is already there or rebuild something very similar I can see the need. These buildings are falling apart. However this bill is concerning to me as somebody who enjoys this area. This Beartooth is one of the spots in this area of the state that is not full of...

    Opinion pieces like this bug me

    I voted against it when it was on the docket because the way it was written allowed the legislature the ability to change where the funding went too easily. Seen this too many times with the legislature changing the funding after something passes. If I remember right, there is another 20% or...

    Montana point Fluke???

    There are so many screw ups anymore I don't trust them to do any of the drawings right. I took a screenshot of all of my families points and accounts to keep an eye on the points. I swear they shafted me on Antelope last year but I can't prove it.

    I will be doing some of my starters inside soon. I start Peppers in February in Montana because they take so damn long. I do variosu varieties of Peppers, tomatoes, watermelon and pumpkins inside. Everything else I do from seed outside. Going for a new Pumpkin record this year. Last year I...

    23 swing for fences tag

    The people really on top of it write a computer program to notify them as soon as an available pops up and then they snag it. No refreshing or anything needed, basically an alert on your phone. I know people that go almost every year because of doing this. My swing for the fences tag is any...
