    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    Oh I totally get why everyone wants to. But it’s no longer even close to feasible have such a high percentage of hunters hunting 1/3 of the state.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I don’t think anyone’s wanting to get rid of NR’s. But when probably 80-90% of them are hunting regions 6 and 7, that’s a problem, not unlike the issue where a large amount of resident pressure is stacked into those same regions as well.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I’m not saying that you’d use similar questions or that similar of a survey. Just using it as an example in how it takes little time to complete and they could set it up as an easy requirement before tag purchase to gain more knowledge on where people are hunting in the state and better idea of...

    Arbitrary Hunting Goals

    I’d like to take a respectable buck of the five species in NA. Currently, I only have whitetail and mule deer. I have 5 point for AZ coues built up, a good contact for Columbia blacktail in OR to hopefully hunt at some point and hoping for a multi species Alaska hunting fishing trip mainly...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I don’t see why you couldn’t have a survey system in place like the HIP survey you must complete before buying a migratory bird license. When you click to purchase an elk or deer tag online, you automatically get directed to a survey you must complete before your purchase. If you buy your tag at...

    I may have missed something somewhere, but I believe scorched earth attempts on deer herds in the u.s. and Canada to curb cwd spread have had virtually no success in slowing transmission in those areas.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    Every deer will be at least more difficult to kill in October than November. As far as bucks, it’s actually beneficial that more guys would be willing to blast the first spike or forky. Right now, I feel like people tend to really cherry pick and hammer the 2 year old nice up and comers over the...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    There will be pressure. The only way to really minimize pressure on mule deer here would be to go LE everywhere. But we don’t want to do that yet. At least it would likely result in lower success rates since guys that don’t even know how to tie their own shoes can’t blast forky with its nose up...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I don’t really see any bad points. If anything, it could provide even less opportunity given the state of herds in both species for the majority of the state. It’s a really nice compromise of opportunity for hunters, potentially spreading out pressure, and giving deer herds more of a fighting...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    As the season is now, the guy from Dillon mentioned in the example could take his family out east for 3 days, shoot their 3 young bucks in eastern MT rutting within a mile of the road too. It can go either way. With a pick your region and species with the season structure mentioned, I think it...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    As hilarious and ridiculous as this is, it shows how many people either don’t understand the effect we’re having on the resources as hunters and that many flat out don’t care about it as long as they get all the opportunity they want.

    It was a fun hunt and I enjoyed spending time in that country. That being said, it is far from a trophy unit, and it has gone downhill as far as quality since I was there in 2018. Enjoy the country and have realistic expectations.

    It spreads out pressure at least to some degree. Also, if you have more archery only guys, there should be less deer being taken(archery success rates are generally much lower) while still providing ample hunting opportunity for everyone.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I would honestly be 100% ok with the season structures the group proposed along with having to choose archery or rifle only.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I agree with you. I’m not trying to make more opportunity for bow hunters. There’s plenty. Just trying to come up with ideas to spread out pressure and make season structure changes work. Maybe it’s a dumb idea. Was just a thought.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    Realistically, for those concerned about losing archery time for deer, you could move the start of the archery season a week or even two back into august. Other states do it. Bow hunters could get a week or two before upland bird hunting pressure starts as a bonus as well. That could allow for...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    For the big proponents of unlimited mule deer rut hunting, I’d say they want to kill a mule deer buck and not have to work very hard to do it, but I doubt any would admit that. I also love hunting rutting muleys but understand it’s not realistic for healthy populations unless very limited in...
