Montana or Wyoming General Elk

[Flatlander3]

Help me decide. Montana general or Wyoming General. Let's assume 100% draw in 2024.

Montana cuz I don't want you taking my tag.

I think everyone is picking the state opposite of the state they reside in.

I wouldn't pick Montana for a snipe hunt right now. mtmuley

That's easy. Montana. You can damn near hunt them year round.

Do you like to hunt or do you want to actually harvest an elk?

 

[WIbiggame]

Both have elk, both have elk on public, both will produce shot opportunities. One is just better than the other

If you really want to learn the craft of elk hunting I would pick Montana. The seasons are much longer giving you a chance to gain more experience, and there is very little chance of your hunt being cut short due to filling your tag.

Colorado

Wyoming if you can draw because it's just going to get harder and harder to.

Wyoming no doubt: less hunters, less pressured elk, better trophy quality, higher success rate, still plenty of public land, and point creep is getting worse better to burn sooner than later. You can realistically hunt Montana general every 2 years, Wyoming general is looking like 5 years and climbing.

Somedays I think it would be best to just shut the internet down.

This website forum is called hunt talk....

Yes, yes it is.

Colorado for non-resident hunt!! Over-the-Counter (OTC) bull tag for 2nd or 3rd season for any one. Just purchase the tag before the season and enjoy the adventure and the experience. And, a small chance of a shot opportunity. Doing this, you can hunt in 2024 almost anywhere in CO and not worry about a low % draw or the point creep.

I have a feeling you were kidding, but you did actually give great advice- also applies to Colorado, Utah and others.

Watching the Montana and Wyoming residents on this site getting cozier and cozier with MOGA and WYOGA recently in exchange for getting what they want, there may be even more opportunities to go this route in the near future.
