Montana General Season Structure Proposal
In Montana we have unit permits for a critter but an unlimited quota of them are issued. So basically you get the permit if you apply for it. -

Montana General Season Structure Proposal
I think I finally understand where you’re coming from @Shed God and the general vicinity of where you hunt. I have spent some days in that general area 20 plus years ago. To me it emphasizes how a single season structure for a state the size of Montana is always going to fall short. -
Montana General Season Structure Proposal
Do the elk not get pushed around with the current season process where you hunt? Honestly trying to wrap my mind around your situation. Edit: are you killing your mature bulls early or late currently? -
Montana General Season Structure Proposal
Count me in😂. Those are incredible sheds for Montana. I’m not the one you need to convince to go limited entry. Like you my primary focus is big racks. Unfortunately we aren’t the norm. -
Montana General Season Structure Proposal
Yeah I think we would need good hunter days data per region. It just doesn’t exist. -

Montana General Season Structure Proposal
I think you’re making plenty of assumptions that I disagree with and would argue are just flat wrong. I have hunted October deer seadons in other states so I know how tough the hunting is. In these other states the elk don’t get moved like your stating by the deer hunters when the seadons... -
Montana General Season Structure Proposal
Have you actually tried to kill a big old mountain muley in October? I will wager a guess you haven’t by your comments. If so, post up these big old “stupid” october bucks you have slain as proof to how easy it is. My experience is I have a hell of a time even finding the big old bucks even... -

Muley Freak in trouble?
Nightforce makes great scopes. My last one was a credo also however. I’m going to give them a minute to see if they correct on their mistake. If not I’m done with them.- rogerthat
