Please Help Habitat Montana
Right now is your best opportunity to help wildlife habitat in Montana. SB442 has been amended by sponsor Lang in the last couple of days to provide substantial funding for Habitat Montana, as was directed when the Citizens of Montana voted to legalize marijuana. Several bills attacking... -

SB 497 - Attack on Stream Access
If you care about your kids or grandkids fishing opportunities, you had better get into action NOW on SB 497. And if you voted for the "conservative" clowns that are working hard at destroying Montana's outdoor opportunities, I wish you would keep this in mind next time before you vote. -

Gird your loins.
I have also been tracking" Ranching For Wildlife" Programs like are ongoing in NM, UT and CO......and similar give aways have started in Montana. After the Legislatures in those states give away a % of elk tags to "Ranchers/Landowners" via some enabling legislation, it isnt very many years... -

Non resident Landowner incentive.
Please explain why the opportunity for landowner tags does not increase the incentive for non residents to buy large blocks of Montana land. -

Monster Day at the Montana Capitol
Unfortunately we are seeing the attacks on wildlife, public lands, the initiative process, the judiciary by the majority of those who we voted for. As Ron Moody, former Lewistown FWP Commissioner reminded us before his passing "95% of Legislative decisions are made on Election Day". You can't... -

Forest Service Issues ‘E-Bike’ Guidance
Habitat security is necessary if we want lengthy unrestricted hunting seasons and mature animals and big game residing on public land. Every convenience that makes human access easier or faster reduces habitat security. That includes constructed trails, horses, ebikes, motorbikes,and atvs. It...- Flynarrow

AZ Otc deer tags
Sold out in 1.25 days. Got mine but a lot of people are going to be frustrated. Add to the unit by unit archery quota and the noose is tightening for non resident archers in Arizona -

Stolen Opportunities....a very sad elk tale. We must do better!
For over 20 years I taught bowhunter education. The course (before computerized) was well designed and taught by largely well experienced bowhunters. The emphasis throughout was to only shoot within your effective range....meant that over 90% of your shots had to be in the kill zone. At the... -

Stolen Opportunities....a very sad elk tale. We must do better!
Thanks to an extreme 2A Legislator's bill a few years ago, the Legislature too away the authority of the FG Commission to regulate any firearm, ammunition or accessory used for hunting. Any change in equipment would have to go through the Legislature now....fat chance. -

Montana mule deer rant
Most sportsmen IMO believe that if FWP didn't want deer killed they wouldn't sell tags. A sportsmen with a tag in their pocket believes they are justified and honorable in taking whatever the regulations allow. Of course, FWP tag sale decisions are based on REVENUE but FWP uses the... -

Montana FWP should improve elk management
Sportsmen never seem to learn that voting matters. The Elk Management Plan was developed under a Governor who appointed mainly ranchers to her commission which used "landowner tolerance" to set elk number objectives . Then there was a conservative legislator from Dillon area who pushed through... -

Montana Mule Deer Mismanagement
"Shifting baseline syndrome" is a term which fits the trend of quality expectations of most Montana hunters perfectly. The term is exemplified by dockside photos of trophy fish at Key West between 1957 and 2007. Average weight of fish diminished by 90% but the smiles of the anglers stayed... -

Montana mule deer rant
Make coyote hunting with limited tags only. That way hunters would be chomping to buy as many and kill as many as possible....just a joke but it ironic hunters look at every season or every predator or whatever the problem trying hard to avoid looking at themselves. It would be hard to kill... -

Montana mule deer rant
Not mentioned too much on this thread is FWP Revenue. Everytime a biologist quotes the old "opportunity" word, substitute REVENUE and see if that doesn't fit. Every biologist salary and the overhead is dependent on REVENUE too, and they know it. Fixed costs of FWP currently is a very high... -

Montana FWP pheasant scam
Wyoming has an interesting twist. I hunted Bighorn lake wildlife area last year. Since they stock both cocks and hens, they allow hunters to kill both as well. So any wild pheasant hens are fair game too. Seems like as a result of shooting hens, the stocking program is detrimental to the...- Flynarrow

Montana FWP pheasant scam
Yes, it is folly to try to put additional pheasant hunters on declining acres of pheasant habitat. Stocking birds is a terrible hunter pacifier. When these youths....if there are any......that pursue real pheasant hunting they will soon find that the best habitat takes $$$ to access or is...- Flynarrow
