It used to be that way, the Breaks were world class. Now everyone is more worried about getting their tag than they are having a quality hunt or hunting big bulls.If FWP managed the Breaks for quality, there would be nowhere that would rival it for elk hunting. mtmuley

I keep hearing from local friends down in Dillon area, there are more hunters then ever before... Stands out far in excess... Didn't comment on the road conditions, back hill roads, etc...
Welcome to the world of hunting, I guess... Makes me think there is some righteous intent behind archery OR rifle hunt - not both... ? Meh...

Hunting pressure appears to be up in a year that FWP accidentally over-issued elk tags? Shocking.
I hadn't heard about this. "Over-issued" how many?
FWP fights snafu in nonresident surplus elk combo licenses
Due to a host of technical difficulties, many hunters who were trying to purchase nonresident surplus elk combo licenses online were unable to complete their transactions.billingsgazette.com
I called FWP this morning, and they mentioned they are going to run this process starting from the hunter who tried to purchase the first licenses at the 5 a.m. starting time and will go down the list until they hit the 393 surplus elk tags that were available. They discussed that the purchase time/error codes all have timestamps, and so that information will be used to figure out the order of who to call in order to offer up a license.
This is a non issue - there’s no alternates list for elk combo or big game combo cuz they over sold - so could end up working out that there’s few more tags than normal or could be few less than normal depending on how many get returnedFWP fights snafu in nonresident surplus elk combo licenses
