    Big Sky Billies and Blunders

    Good grief, what an experience. Congratulations on a fantastic billy, and I'm glad you handled the fall so well, all things considered. I think my favorite thing is that you never mention considering leaving the goat on the mountain and hiking out, which I think is the same as how 95%+ of...

    Montana on the Upswing?

    Yeah, I do. One of the only things keeping our whitetail hunting sustainable is the fact that so many of our local hunters go East instead. With our high population and easy access to whitetail, it would transfer a ton of harvest from your Eastern mule deer to Western whitetail. I could see lots...

    Montana on the Upswing?

    If they shorten the mule deer season but leave it open to whitetail in November, our mountain whitetail west of the divide would be decimated. The only way I would be on board with something like that would be if they made you choose your species pre-season, and not have the ability to hunt mule...

    Montana on the Upswing?

    Going off of Boone and Crockett records, only 5 of the top 50 typicals, and 1 of the top 50 nontypicals killed in Montana have come from Ravalli County, and that's with 20 years of the most restrictive buck harvest in the state. I've spent a ton of time in those units, and still the biggest...

    Montana on the Upswing?

    I talked with maybe 6-7 people this year who had similar interactions with said biologist, and that was my experience also. The dude is not building a good reputation for himself.

    Pet Peeves

    The hoards of people on here that post on things as if they were an expert, when it's painfully obvious that they're novice and/or have very little experience to back up their assertions.

    Colorado wolf referendum, 168,000 signatures gathered.

    Sorry to be nit-picky, but that's not migration. Pet peeve of mine.

    E-Bike legality in Montana.

    It certainly doesn't help that almost all the major newspapers in Montana ran an article wrongly stating they're legal to use on "all federal land". I've been shocked at how many of those things I've seen in the backs of trucks this year. Haven't caught one in a wrong spot yet, but it's...

    Montana mule deer rut?

    Huh, completely different than my experiences. I've been seeing great rut activity in mule deer since Halloween, and that seems normal for my areas in western MT. The whitetail I've been hunting this week haven't shown any sign of rutting. This pictures from today. Hard to tell but he's lip...

    Anyone seeing pre-rut action in Montana?

    Conveniently, I'm leaving work in a half hour for 12 days in the woods.

    Anyone seeing pre-rut action in Montana?

    I'm watching a mature whitetail pushing does around as I type this. No doubt peak rut will happen the same time it always does, but it sure seems like this cold snap has a few bucks jumping the gun.
