    Non-resident outfitter license (MT) Bill is up for hearing 2/2/2021 (SB 143)

    Wow, you have more patience than I do. It only took 78 pages and how many months? Looks like we've been had, the jig is up, he's on to us...come on...its one dude. Seems like your spiking the ball on the 20 yard line instead of the end-zone.

    Hunts you consider unethical and why?

    For me ethics boil down to a single question of purpose or intent. What is the purpose or intent of the hunt? Ethical harvest is a harvest that serves a purpose, either a purpose or benefit for society, wildlife conservation, or personal safety. Columbia River Pike Minnow are harvested for...

    Non-resident outfitter license (MT) Bill is up for hearing 2/2/2021 (SB 143)

    Tags are a limited resource. There is your difference. The fact something is a limited resource does not mean the government should guarantee obtaining it. In fact show me a business, that solely relies on a limited resource to be profitable, where the government guarantees business.

    How Would You Improve Block Management?

    First, this thread is for ideas only. It is not a thread for criticizing ideas, no matter how off base you think they are. I will admit up front I'm a Montana NR hunter, so I'm not going to know the politics and nuance of the Block Management Program. I do love the program. I've harvested my...

    What is Hank Worsech beef with Block Management?

    Thanks for all the replies. Ok, I understand the distain for entitled hunters and that’s certainly a big part of what he addresses in the article. I might be miss-reading the tea leaves here but it seemed to me he also has distain for block management on a policy level. It sounds like he’s...

    What is Hank Worsech beef with Block Management?

    Can anyone provide context and insight into why Worsech makes these comments about the block management program? As a non-resident I’m at loss to understand why anyone would disparage block management. From the article: When Sen. Pat Flowers, D-Bozeman, asked what created the wedge between...

    HB 505 - Elk Need Your Help

    @Gerald Martin Your testimony was golden! I've worked in government for a long time and humanizing your address and using specific data from your hunt to highlight the bill's effect in your unit is exactly how you make your point and change minds. Personalizing your message is the only...

    Anyone know when Tikka is coming out with a 6.5 PRC and what models it will come in? I've heard enough to confirm they are coming out with at least one model in 6.5 PRC.

    Oregon OTC Elk Non Resident Question

    Not necessarily. There are significant portion of archers in Oregon that prefer to hunt Eastern Oregon mule deer with a rifle. These folks put in for points in the controlled rifle draw and the years they don’t draw they hunt archery. This group will have to now choose between rifle and archery...

    GOP congressman wants to remove 4 dams to save Idaho’s salmon

    Help is on the horizon. Most of the legwork done to get this project approved was done by the Trump administration. The Biden administration is more than happy to take the credit. https://gcaptain.com/u-s-issues-first-wave-energy-lease-for-federal-waters-off-west-coast/

    You must have me mistaken for someone else. Also, you’ve made my point for me.

    What do you think the odds are that Montana passes on taking the windfall of federal non-resident generated funds coming in the next few years? https://www.outdoorlife.com/story/guns/gun-ammo-sales-increase-wildlife-conservation-funding/

    You’ll take the money and say the issue is somebody else’s problem...that response doesn’t support your position...and it certainly doesn’t eliminate the inconvenient truth.

    Non-resident outfitter license (MT) Bill is up for hearing 2/2/2021 (SB 143)

    I’m not bitching about the amendment ...I think it’s definitely a better deal than what was originally proposed. And I think it will likely get a little better as it moves through the house. I’m more interested in understanding and following the political and social players, context, and intent...
