    Make the case for federalizing game species

    I can’t even imagine the draw odds in the western states where game is managed at all if this were to happen where everyone gets equal opportunity regardless of residence. You’d be waiting 30 years to draw a mediocre tag. Lol. Montana would stay the same and we’d all be competing over hunting...

    Montanans how long since your last mule deer

    2023, 2020. I see a lot of posts on hunting forums and social media from non residents referring to residents complaining about not seeing deer numbers and good bucks followed by how they did well with accompanying pictures of 20-24” muleys. Although non residents on average probably hunt...

    Guesses on Score?

    135-140 I’d guess. Solid tine length everywhere. Fairly average everywhere else.

    That little guy with his hide on doesn’t look very tasty. But then again, I’ve never had one marinated with dust and the hide left on, so who knows.

    Montana season structure proposal 2.0

    It would be nice to see whitetail does managed by unit as well. We’re at a fraction of what we were with them even 5 years ago over a pretty large area where I am, but you can still buy one or two each otc.

    Gratitude For The Deer That Are There

    Great post @namelessrange. While I’ve noticed along with other hunters here in eastern region 6 who’ve lived here a lot longer that it’s the worst we’ve ever seen for deer and that changes are needed, you still have to get out and enjoy the time together in this awesome state and don’t have to...

    Who Doesn't Love a Fall Brookie?!

    Beautiful fish! I love wading brook trout streams.

    Let’s talk about the 243win

    It’s a great caliber. My son killed his first 4 bucks with it and it handled them well. I have a suppressed 6.5 prc now that kicks less than the 243, so that’s what the kids use now, but I still use the 243 coyote hunting a fair bit. 80 grain ttsx do a pretty nice job on deer out of it.

    The 8 Year Wait...

    That’s a beautiful buck and sounds like a great hunt! Congrats!

    Montana season structure proposal 2.0

    2021 is about the time I noticed the huge influx in NE region 6 as well. There are bma’s and state land I’ve been hunting for 16 years where I’d see 15-30+ deer each time hiking until 3-4 years ago. Average now is 1-5 deer with maybe one small buck on those same spots.

    Decisions, Decisions

    Awesome! I forgot about this hunt. I really like the rams in the 2nd and last pic. Looking forward to seeing which ram you take.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I’ve noticed more and more the last five years or so that deer are learning boundaries. Bma’s that used to hold good numbers of deer all season seem much more void of deer after a week or two of rifle and I see good numbers hanging out on private 1/2 mile or so from the boundary. This is in...

    suppressor length on hunting rifle

    I’m sure I’m in the minority, but my 24” seekins with about a 6” Rex silentium doesn’t bother me at all to carry around. I feel like it should be too much but it feels good in my gun bearer on the pack and doesn’t feel awkward.

    Deer Head Stolen

    My brother shot about a 330 bull 2 years ago in WY opening day in an LE unit. We ran into two groups on the initial packout with just meat. Both groups couldn’t believe we didn’t pack the head out first. We said we thought we had to pack out meat. They both said guys will steal that. We hid it...

    Montana season structure proposal 2.0

    There was some talk about regional caps a page or two back. I support those for both residents and non. The actual process for doing this would be much simpler for non residents since there’s sort of a limit on overall tags issued to them. Residents would be much more challenging to figure out...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I never really used to pay much notice to NR’s out hunting. They pay good money and have every right to hunt the same areas with their tag. The last 5 years though have substantially increased to the point that it would be great to see the same number of tags for them but with regional and...

    Help launch the North American Pronghorn Foundation - GoFundMe

    I think that’s a great idea. 😂

    Montana season structure proposal 2.0

    Just curious if there’s been much of any discussion about an archery only tag option where that would be your only either sex deer tag? As someone who hunts rifle and archery, I personally would feel like I had plenty of opportunity either way, but I’d guess that wouldn’t go over very well for most.

    MT 2-day Youth hunt

    That’s great stuff! It’s pretty being there for your kids first deer. I dhot easily my biggest buck last fall, and it didn’t even compare to the excitement from watching my daughter shoot her first buck this year. Nice job!

    MT Great Outdoors Conservation Easement approved by 3-2 Vote. Guess who voted No

    He’s a joke. It’s funny hearing what people from his hometown say about him.
