    Which slope to start with?

    As a common rule of thumb, your north facing slopes are typically wetter and will have heavier stands of timber where elk go for security and bedding. The south facing slopes will be your warmer/drier slopes with more open grassland habitat where elk will often feed. There are exceptions and...

    Montana HB - 462: Worth your time Marijuana Taxes & Access

    Thank you, Randy! I'm now sitting in the chairperson seat for FWP's Region 4 CAC. We have a meeting this Thursday where we will discuss this legislation and other proposed bills. We disccused the potential for this back in December and had strong consensus against it. I have borrowed your list...

    Reconyx Representative Needed

    Update - we were able to work through the issues with Reconyx customer service reps and we now have the cameras we ordered with installation to occur next week. I'm really hoping we don't have the same issues identified by Redmt in this thread. We shall see...

    Reconyx Representative Needed

    All, My project team is having a very difficult time getting a bulk order of Reconyx game cameras directly from Reconyx and we are hitting a dead end with customer service. Is there a rep on Hunt Talk forums that someone could point me to? I'm just hoping that a representative could help with...

    The nature of antlers

    I had the good fortune of working for a few days (during hunting season) in a remote Alaskan village about 10 years ago. While there, I drove by the landfill each day and was shocked to see very large moose antlers in the dump. The locals were clearly not interested in keeping the antlers - it...

    Fenwick Rods

    Funny you should say that as I just took my new St Croix out two nights ago. I heard great things about their warranty program and my son loves his so I splurged on one for myself. If Fenwick ever gets off the pot and warranties my broken one, I will have two good options.

    Fenwick Rods

    This is a long shot on here as the fishing forum doesn't get near the traffic of other forums, but here goes. I have a one year old Fenwick spinning rod that I received as a gift from my boys last Father's Day. I like the rod a lot but the other week it simply snapped in half under...

    Elk Cam Pics 2022

    I have hauled my laptop up the mountain also. A buddy takes a 35mm camera with him and puts the SD card in it to view photos and video - works well for him.

    Elk Cam Pics 2022

    Are you scouting to find a particular bull to focus on or is this area new and you are just trying to get a feel for what is in there? Since you plan to check these cameras often, I would use the video setting on your camera and get some short video clips - those are always more interesting and...

    North Idaho Whitetail Rut

    I would second these dates. All of my largest whitetail bucks from NW Montana have been harvested in this window. Good luck!

    Montana 3/4 curl ram judging

    I had the 210 tag in 2008 and probably have pictures of that same ram. Ha. Such a fun district to hunt and great area to view and photograph full curl rams. I understand the herd is only a fraction of what it was when we hunted it but I'm sure there are still some beautiful rams in that herd.

    Boots for September elk hunting

    I wore Danner's for the longest time and 2 years ago I splurged on a pair of Lowa's and do not regret that decision. I have the Lowa Renegade GTX and it fits my foot extremely well, is very light weight, and felt great right out of the box. Highly recommend trying Lowa if you never have before.

    Montana LE Mule Deer

    Not me....but that was to be expected after drawing a few years back. I may never draw again in my lifetime. Same with elk, sheep, and moose. I've drawn all those tags over the years but oddly can't draw an antelope or cow elk tag to save my life. But I'm not complaining ;)

    Price of Montana Sporstman's License for Youth Hunters

    In looking at the 2022 Montana regs that just came out, I noticed that the Sportsman's license without bear for adults is $62.00 and half that for youth ($31.00). That part makes sense. However, the price for Sportsman's license with bear is $77.00 for both adults and youth. But a youth can...

    Despite the odds, how many Sheep Tags have you Drawn or Won in your Life?

    Yep - those die-offs were tough to see back then and the herds haven't fully recovered although all of those herds have permits offered these days - just not as many. I love that Rock Creek drainage - such a memorable hunt!!

    Despite the odds, how many Sheep Tags have you Drawn or Won in your Life?

    I drew a Montana sheep tag in 2008 for District 210 Lower Rock Creek. I had the most bonus points possible at that time but can't remember how many that was. I believe it was 2009 or 2010 that the Rock Creek herd got hit with pneumonia and the herd had a major die off. I believe the year I...
