FWP Approves First Prairie Dog Conservation Contract
I’m fairly ignorant on the plight of the black footed ferret but seems like we have lots of prairie dogs in eastern Montana. Do they need connectivity of towns or something? Seems like a family of ferrets could eat for years on the prairie dog towns I know about. What am I missing?- rogerthat

Talk me out of Sig Zulu6 20x42
I have a pair. They are a special use bino. The depth of focus is really shallow ie my finger never leaves the focus knob but I like them for my purposes. I spotted a herd of elk with them at over 20 miles that for some reason I couldn’t even really see in my spotter. -

Protection in bear country
I agree. They should poll the Montana gubernatorial candidates. I’m sure Busse would be taking bear spray -
Deer age, antler growth, and culling
Except they will still need to get to 4 or 5 years of age to be big with the exception of the very very rare giant. Just going off observations and anecdotal age data, the vast majority of bucks won’t get there in Montana. -
Brother's ?
This. The bucks just aren’t getting the age especially the best ones. -

Montana General Season Structure Proposal
Yeah that’s the sticky wicket is some form of opportunity cut and decrease in harvest success is needed. What that exactly looks like that can garner the social acceptance needed to be implemented is key. I support any and all proposals and proposesrs if they think they can get anything donein... -

No offense meant whatsoever, but you and I hunt and for that matter are on Hunttalk for completely different reasons. None of them are right and wrong as long as we are respectful and polite. Just food for thought.- rogerthat

Montana General Season Structure Proposal
As you know, Colorado is starkly different than Montana in terms of population, development, etc. they are tasked with spreading out a giant amount of hunters on the finite landscape. The do that with limited entry for deer that includes very short window rifle seasons. Currently a season... -
throwing good app money after bad and repeat
That should be fairly easy. I have watched a lot of YouTube and follow some of the outfitters on social media. Bucks like that are all over out there- rogerthat

Montana General Season Structure Proposal
I agree. I think when the science is settled(if it ever is and I will be a mushroom or mushroom fertilizer) that it will be an all of the above thing. Genetics, habitat/nutrition, age. Hopefully they will be able to determine what factors have the greatest effect and maybe it is habitat like... -
Montana General Season Structure Proposal
One last point @sclancy27 why did the late 40s and 50s kick out so many big bucks in Montana? Agreed but to insinuate buck genetics play no part is pretty hard for me to believe. I had never seen a drop tine buck in my life. In 2015 I found an area that had a drop tine buck. I have now seen... -
Montana General Season Structure Proposal
Not to mention why do private ranch deer owners pay ridiculous amounts for the breeder sires? Why do they care if it’s not genetics? I’m not arguing montieths research(I listen to all the cokslide podcasts) but even they would admit their research is still developing. I will bet money they...
