Non-resident outfitter license (MT) Bill is up for hearing 2/2/2021 (SB 143)
This is some seriously unbelievable politics but at least we don't have to listen to any more outfitters tell us how much they care about the resource. They just proved that the only thing they care about is $$. Oh I almost forgot this was going to help resident hunters too. Certainly more... -

Non-resident outfitter license (MT) Bill is up for hearing 2/2/2021 (SB 143)
There seems to be a consistent theme on this thread with supporters of this bill. It seems to involve trying to distract the conversation to some other issue that will in no way be addressed by this tag grab. "The public land is mismanaged" this bill does nothing to fix that. "The real... -

Then target a change in management of these public lands not an outfitter set aside the does nothing to address this issue. -

Non-resident outfitter license (MT) Bill is up for hearing 2/2/2021 (SB 143)
Uses a internet screen name to call someone a chicken impressive tactic. Im shocked how many of you supports of this bill can't comprehend math but I guess that video kinda clears that up for us. Your asking for a 60% setaside, while claiming somewhere between 40% and 50% already go... -

Non-resident outfitter license (MT) Bill is up for hearing 2/2/2021 (SB 143)
Lets be honest you didn't do this because their wasn't hunters to book these trips not because of some high and might concern for the resource. The reason tags went under sold in Montana is supply and demand. The price of tags was high, folks didn't have a lot of expendable income, and they... -

Non-resident outfitter license (MT) Bill is up for hearing 2/2/2021 (SB 143)
I'm a little late to the party, and most of my thoughts have been well hashed out previously but I still want to get my two cents in on a issue that is important to me. My biggest frustration with this situation and consequently this thread is that there are outfitters and their supporters on... -

What would you do with 25 Elk Points and 25 Deer Points in CO
I'm a huge fan of gohunt and doing your own research but with that many points I would highly recommend an epic outdoors membership. $100 buys you a lot of info and those guys are pretty dialed on top end units and could point you in the right direction. -

Wyoming Unit 66
I hunted a unit that borders 66 a couple years ago. We saw plenty of bucks including some good ones across the boundary in 66 and this was a few weeks into the season well after the one shot contest. There's a ton of public in that unit so shouldn't be an issue to find goats. If nothing has... -

Idaho hates NRs.
I get your point that all states will suffer I am just pointing out that Idaho will not be insulated from this as the perceived "cheapest" elk tag. With the price increase proposed its going to be right there with the other popular western states for elk.- Chad E

Idaho hates NRs.
You must not remember when Idaho was offering discounted second tags to anyone that would buy one and not able to sell them all. This wasn't that many years ago either. It was same time Montana couldnt sell all their combos and a guy could simply drive to wyoming and buy leftover antelope tags...- Chad E

2018 MT Deer and Elk applications are open
Can't answer the preference point question but the general is good statewide except the limited entry hd' s. The limited entry draw is different from the general.- Chad E

Steven Rinella and Rob Bishop
There were lots of statments that Bishop made that were crazy and you needed no prior knowledge to know they were crazy. I do understand what your saying overall but I don't think any of the dialog would of occurred had Rinnella jumped him. I think Steve let him express his points and lots of...- Chad E

Steven Rinella and Rob Bishop
What makes you think this was a debate with a winner and a looser. Rinnella expressed his desire to allow someone with a differing view point come on and explain themselves. He allowed just that. I would be very surprised if he didn't make some sort of rebuttal himself to some of Bishops...- Chad E

Region 7 Montana
I've hunter region 7 two of the last three years. Buy on X and use the desktop platform to mark likely chunks of public and then go exploring. Both the bucks we killed this year were within 1/2 a mile of a pin I dropped on the map sitting at my house in July. My best advice is don't overthink it. -

Apparently every unit everywhere sucks
Several above me have said it but I really suggest you pick a unit and go hunt. Set realistic expectations and have a good time. I promise you that if you do enough digging on forums and message boards you will find bad reports about even the best unit out there. Lots of people tend to set...
