    Montana FWP makes seismic shift in elk permits

    Is this 100% true?? I listened to the entire meeting and it even sounded like half the commission didn't understand this, even after the motion had unanimous ballot. With the 1st and only choice I believe that voids the tag for either sex in general season. Hence the 270 exemption in Region 2...

    3 Week season for Mule Deer

    Its not. There are more deer taken from and retrieved with ATVs and sxs in Montana where it is absolutely not legal, but apparently accepted by most. Probably a better question for the enforcement division because no one seems to care. Off road vehicles loaded with guys and rifles capable of...

    Montana Drawing Statistics Data Question

    Touché. I keep forgetting that because I wasn't born in MT and am currently not a resident of Wyoming that I can't have an elk tag or an opinion. Sooorry

    Montana Drawing Statistics Data Question

    The volatility of obtaining a combo is going to make this even worse. You could have all the bonus points in the world but if you can't get your hands on a combo before the permit drawing you have zero chance. I know several folks that got returned combos which means they missed out on the...

    Do MT elk PPs get refunded if you return a General Tag?

    Until the NR LE quotas are separate from the resident draw, the reduction in odds of NR combos will have zero impact on LE draw odds for NRs. Especially highly sought after rifle permits. Just too many residents in the pool for it to matter

    And the Hits just keep on coming....WY now.

    PP purchases generated 16.5 million in revenue for WY in 2020. Not license sales, point sales. When half of LQ permits go away I would think many will jump out of the point sham. The increase license cost is there to cover the loss in revenue from the point jumpers

    I want 1 elk tag in 30 years. And you want 1 elk tag every year for 30 years running. Tell me more about stealing all your opportunities. All of our 4 figure investments are worth jack and it puts a smile on your face.

    And the Hits just keep on coming....WY now.

    I've always looked at limited quota tags as 'once in a lifetime' for my non resident apps. But when 'once in a lifetime' mathematically starts to look like 'never in a lifetime' it starts to sting when you've invested so much. Why stop at 90/10? Gonna need to auction off a few more tags to cover...

    124,000 folks just like you. But hey you can always go on your $2000 general elk hunt as long as you don't hunt wilderness.

    Pronghorn Taxidermy

    Update. I spent a long time looking through forms and ended up going with this Bill Lancaster series form from trufit. Here is the final product.

    MT Bonus Points

    You cannot apply for both. But you can aquire points for both. And points for either are not affected by drawing the other.

    MT Bonus Points

    I looked into this a bit and correct me if I'm wrong but there is a separate 900 series antelope bonus point. Therefore I would think you could apply for 900 series and draw. And still purchase regular pronghorn bonus point for that year. Separate draw, separate points?

    Montana Limited Entry

    I do. But someone is going to draw. I was just pointing out that NRs are competing against residents for the tags. Many other states quotas actually mean that that specific number of NRs will draw, that is all. Hunt areas that have high volumes of resident applicants, the NR quota is often not...

    Montana Limited Entry

    NRs regardless of points are not guaranteed to draw from the "quota" the quota is essentially just the cap of how many NR tags can be drawn. Many times you will find that 0 NRs draw from many of these pools year after year.
