    FWP embarks on mule deer monitoring, research, and outreach initiatives

    I like most of you on here would like to see more restrictions on mule deer hunting. I'm slowly coming to terms with the fact that Hunt talk is simply an echo chamber and at the end of the day the majority/ average Montana resident hunter probably does just care about getting opportunity over...

    Elkhorn 380-20 tag

    Congrats on the tag. I had the tag in 2021, the same year as @BRI. Took me 14 years to draw it. Your in for a super fun hunt but Its definitely no cake walk. I would really urge you to view it as an opportunity to have one of the best adventures of your life, not stress about shooting a giant...

    First Buzztail this year

    As you can see this one was right out side our house last spring. My dog actually jumped off the top of the steps over it without seeing it. Thankfully he cleared it. I had started coming down the stairs before I saw it. Needless to say “it had to go”.

    2023 Montana Draw!!!!

    That would make far too much sense and yield far too good of results. It may break the FWP brain trust

    Township, Range, Section list of public lands an outfitter has use permits on?

    Sure doesn't seem ok. You'd think the public should have the right to at least know where outfitters are on operating on public lands. I'd also imagine if the outfitter can prevent the public from knowing this information by just say "yes" the public knowing where we are operating hurts our...

    Township, Range, Section list of public lands an outfitter has use permits on?

    BLM lady called me back actually. She said she talked to her boss and apparently had already given me too much information and that she wont be able to give me a yes or no on the TRS's I had asked about. She went on to say that I will have to make a FOIA request and that before it is approved...

    Township, Range, Section list of public lands an outfitter has use permits on?

    Ok, well I called the BLM office this morning. Spoke to a very nice lady there. She informed that if I want all the info such as exactly who the outfitters are and all the areas that have SRP's I would have to do the FOIA. She then went on to say if I emailed her a list of the TRS areas I was...

    Township, Range, Section list of public lands an outfitter has use permits on?

    Thanks, that's what I was thinking of trying next. Just figured in todays day and age that information would be online, but perhaps not.

    Township, Range, Section list of public lands an outfitter has use permits on?

    Im trying to figure out where a person might be able to find a Township, Range, Section list for what public land outfitters have hunting use permits on. Specifically BLM land and in Montana. Currently working on some hunting plans for this fall and would like to avoid areas where outfitters...

    SB 298 - Crossbow bill rears its ugly head

    What on earth could the possible reasoning be for this? It has nothing to do with a cross bow

    Non resident Landowner incentive.

    I dont know much about PERC, what is their angle in all of this? What was their reason for supporting transferable tags? I looked at their website and it says "Our current initiatives focus on market approaches to wildlife conservation and improving public lands management". What exactly do...

    Non resident Landowner incentive.

    Is the bonus point only for deer and elk? Or do they get an extra bonus point for all species including the big 3 ?
