Stuff you don't like for no good reason
Calling beautiful, fast, fun hunting, good eating American Pronghorn Antelope "speed goats" or any other kind of goat expresses lack of knowledge about wild game. Closest species to pronghorn antelope is the giraffe. Goats are a distinctly different animal than pronghorn antelope. Hauling...- Straight Arrow

Sunday Pic of the Day
Cooney State Park in October. We like it then as the obnoxious beer drinkers are then sitting on the couch watching football and the annoying loud boats are in winter dry dock.- Straight Arrow

Montana trying to be like Utah?
The reality is that there is only a finite amount of state and federal public land, particularly open space. In my opinion, there's not enough to provide for important open air, water quality, viable recreational activties, agricultural leases, and much more. Once sold or developed, that land...- Straight Arrow

Good Neighbor: Elk Management in Montana
'Don't know about the rest of Montana, but in SW Montana there does not seem to be increased access or greater community involvement from wealthy people owning the big ranches with good wildlife habitat and large numbers of wildlife. I agree with the first four statements, but I just don't...- Straight Arrow

Good Neighbor: Elk Management in Montana
The Montana Stockgrowers Association would not agree with that statement. Nor would the beef industry data. Granted motorized cattle herding has become a viable method, however there is still a popularity with doing things on the back of a horse. In fact, the recreational and competitive...- Straight Arrow

Good Neighbor: Elk Management in Montana
'Don't know how long you've been in Montana, but the CODE OF THE WEST has historically and traditionally been more specific than you express. In fact it has been published as a Gallatin County document for newcomers to read as guidance in acclimating to Montana life and mores. 'Don't know why...- Straight Arrow

Good Neighbor: Elk Management in Montana
YES! Whatever happened to the longstanding principles of the CODE OF THE WEST? It historically has been that the blessings of man's ownership of property with wildlife habitat also included appreciation, but especially a requisite tolerance, of wildlife on the property.- Straight Arrow

Funny Hunter Quotes/Lingo
Same here. Guy I bowhunted with had an encounter at close range with a huge bull elk. He said it was so huge, close, and intimidating that he never even got a shot at it. It was right in front of him, imposing a large looming rectangular shape that resembled a train car. He called his bull...- Straight Arrow
