Montana 652 quota increase

[timmy]

Looks like commission is set to increase the 652 quota once again with no public comment even.

Nearly doubling the harvest with no public comment. Fantastic.

Unfortunately not just Montana. From what I've seen here since the "shoot the deer to stop the spread starts" it will fly down the shitter faster than you can imagine. Hell we couldnt shoot enough for them so DNR had shooters set up over bait. Not a typo, DNR baiting deer in a "cwd hot zone". I hope for your guys sake it doesnt play out like it has here.

Guess I'll just save my points and keep accumulating out west. What a joke......

Turning ONE unit, that provides a better experience, into just another unit.

Saw this coming, cant have nice things in Montana anymore.

Nothing like going from scouring the vast public lands and units of eastern Montana for a "nice" 130 inch 4x4 on a general tag to cashing in a decade worth of bonus points to be restricted to a small unit with tons of pressure looking for a "nice" 130 inch 4x4.

Good. Cant have 4.5 year old deer running around in Montana.

I'm not so sure two positive or suspect CWD samples within 25 miles should result in such a large quota increase... At least they didn't remove the permit all together I suppose.

Rather than explore other remedies to the affliction, it seems the program is send them Back To the Brink!
