Any Missouri River Breaks Experts
Well this certainly turned into something I wasn’t expecting when I asked for a message if anybody had some encouraging news. I’m hunting the breaks next year…barring some really bad luck in the draws. It’s just a matter of where. Thanks guys. -
Any Missouri River Breaks Experts
Hi guys, I’m hopeful there’s a guy or two on this site that knows more than their fair share about the breaks and the elk that call it home. Before I go any further, I have researched the latest Montana FWP wintering elk number estimates (as well as the ones before that) and read as much as I... -
2024 Gila early archery elk
Man, this is awesome! I’ve wanted to hunt the Gila my whole life and I’m living proof that the odds don’t favor the HT members as I’ve put in there for 10 or 11 years now I’d guess! Too bad about the meat spoilage but it sounds like you did everything right to me. I have tracked a bull into... -
Dealing with lead cow elk?
Deal with her? Well…you can’t, unless you go buy one of those cow tags. It’s part of elk hunting. It would be the same as if you asked us how to deal with “swirling winds”. You can’t….its all part of the game. -
Montana Archery Elk Research?
So, how much help do we (I) have to give you before we (I) can come hunt whitetails on your place? 😃 -
Do you like my elk hunt plan?
Like others have said, and to put it bluntly, you just seem to have a lot of confidence in and are putting all your eggs in a basket where you haven’t yet laid eyes on an elk. It just seems awfully bold! Now you COULD be right, and all the things line up for a great elk hunt. But what if you’re... -
NV 151-156 Deer
I wondered if it had already opened while I was responding but didn’t want to take the time to go look. That is great!!! Maybe I’m just a lousy hunter ;) -
NV 151-156 Deer
Aerosith, I had the tag for first rifle hunt for these units last year. It was the only time in my life I thought about returning a tag but I like to hunt and explore so I went along with it. Well…I should've turned the tag in quite honestly. I’m regretting burning my points on that hunt. I saw... -
MT District 302 lost Archery Elk found - Medicine Lodge
I was going to add the same context as above. I hunt elk with a bow and a rifle. Love the challenges of both equally. Something about getting close to bugling bulls. Also something about getting in tight to a bull’s hidey hole in post rut situations. With all that said, rifle season comes... -
26 year wait - Utah elk hunt
WOW! Great write up greenhorn. I hadn’t been on this site in a while (and when I have it was sparingly) and just read all 21 pages of that! Obviously, a huge congratulations are in order to not only kill that bull but to hunt the way you did. I’m a huge fan of yours, albeit a new one. Also... -

Hard for me to believe 58 years of elk hunting
Wayne, I’m sure glad you like elk hunting as much as you do. Gives us something to talk about when the fishing is slow! 😂 -Trent -

Montana rules
oofta. Regardless of the evidence of sex, these are the ones I see broke most often. Some of the two track roads don't have an obvious "road closed" sign when they close on the specified date. It's up to you to check the open and closed dates online. Usually the way this goes for me, is I park... -
Elk size pictures
Most of this thread is very awesome for the fact that I also would’ve guessed these bulls bigger than the posted score. These same pics on facebook, posted by different hunters, and these would be 330+ bulls. I’ve been fortunate enough to see a my fair share of large bulls on the ground and last... -
KHunter NM Pronghorn 2022
I thought for sure I timed this right and didn’t start reading until today….Now I’m hooked too! I’m about as good at waiting for these kinds of stories as I am at sitting waterholes for antelope… -
Montana ridiculousness- Pref point debacle
Another thing I’ve yet to get a concrete answer from is if that point you buy goes on this years application or just means you gain the preference point when you apply and you’re unsuccessful. We’re all just throwing darts at the wall here.- POk3s

Montana ridiculousness- Pref point debacle
The only skewed part of your thinking, I believe. (Hell I don’t even know if I know…what I know anymore) is that they allocate 25% of the tags for those with 0 preference points. Basically a separate draw for those of “us” with 0 preference points to still have a chance. Unless they’re changing...- POk3s

Montana ridiculousness- Pref point debacle
SON OF A B**** !!! This is starting to sound a lot like the outfit I work for. They all must sit at a round table trying to think of all the ways they can make this as hard as possible!!! I guess that makes it pretty easy then. I apply, gamble, and don’t plan. “Hope isn’t a plan” but it...- POk3s

Montana ridiculousness- Pref point debacle
I have to imagine that’s going to change this year…or catch back up to itself. It only makes sense that last year was an anomaly based on the numbers. But if there’s more people with 2 points that will soak up all the combo tags before the 1 point guys then maybe I haven’t a clue what I’m...- POk3s
