2023 Montana Draw!!!!

Got the FWP call Saturday. Real surprised it came on the weekend. Nice lady asked if I hunted elk this past season. Explained that I was sick with bronchitis and had to eat all my tags. Tag soup if you please. She was very nice and said with hope this next season will be different. MTG
 
Good thing Hank simplified things.
One of the local biologist wants to break up one of the big "simplifications" he was instructed to implement because it's too big of a unit to manage now. It's too late for the change but it'll add more confusion to the mess for 2024. Funny because that was the exact comment I made when it was first proposed and he still moved forward with it.

So definitely better to have 0 points than 1 point for both draws. I've heard that speculated but never actually seen it spelled out.

So not much incentive to buy preference points. What exactly was the logic to set aside licenses for zero points?
 
Prob outfitters that wanted return clients......
That’s already covered by people able to purchase 2 preference points if they are going with an outfitter. The odds are better with 2 points compared to 0 points so it isn’t the guide and outfitter that benefits from the allocation to zero point holders.
