    CWD- again and forever.

    @brocksw you know as much or more about cwd as anybody. That still isn’t enough. Managing it out of a herd is a pretty tough sell to people that have seen that management their whole lives. Certainly depressing if it is what they say it is.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    We are going to manage off the best science that comes from other states that don’t have a general rut hunt. There is no ground breaking research coming from Montana to my knowledge.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    If they were straight forward with the public I think people would be more sympathetic. Instead we get buck size hasn’t changed, age class still robust, no change in hunter distribution, record counts on public land, animals didn’t die they just migrated. Doe harvest is extremely low even...

    Montana Mule Deer Mismanagement

    Ok so we voted in Schweitzer and Bullock and headed down the same road. I remember Schweitzer with his veto brand outside the capital. Honestly the current governor and commission have been the most active I have seen.

    Montana Mule Deer Mismanagement

    It is going to take the right politicians or an angry mob in Helena to get any positive changes. I’m currently sharpening my pitchfork waiting for the call. Changes will come hopefully for the better just maybe not in my lifetime. FWP is dug in on unlimited opportunity at the expense of wildlife.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    It is certainly interesting and I don’t know the answer. If they would come out and say this is cwd management and this is what the future looks like it would be easier to stomach. They tend to take the path of nothing has changed and you need to try harder or gain access to private land.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    Region 7 staff is strongly for no changes even though we are getting pounded by nonresidents and western Montana hunters. It is madness with no adults steering the wheel. We will take a beating again this fall.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    Fwp never supported private land only doe tags (strongly opposed them actually). You can thank MOGA and the commission for that change. At least in region 7.

    At least people can see what it’s like to go to a region 7 meeting.

    FWP Cruelty

    I’m not going to lie I checked as well. Antelope really aren’t my thing but with the ways the draws went it might be this is year.

    I will patiently wait I just hope they get the quotas right.

    FWP Cruelty

    If you can’t take let downs from mtfwp you need to move or hunt a different state.
