If you are planning on hunting private land this is fake news. If you are hunting public it rings way to close to the truth. I walked up into some of the best winter range on the Custer a few days ago. I didn't see a deer, just some tracks. The range looked great, grass everywhere, Winter Fat that was nearly as tall as my knees and lots rabbit brush that was untouched. Maybe the low numbers is dew the easy winter but zero deer is hard to take. I have been hiking there since 81. Back in the 80's and 90's I would see groups of 20 or more.

Did they lower the price of nonresident tags for the upcoming year?

No I just realized the NR tags are cheap for the quality of deer you get in Montana , nothing like shooting a pile of doe’s on public ! Can’t wait !!!!!! So far got ten committed and will get atleast 3 b tags each so that’s 40 tags ! Excited !

Why stop at 3 B tags when you can buy 7?
Make sure and hang all them 2 points on your camp meat pole. Makes for a great picture to take back across the border.

This is funny and I assume you are joking but the scary part is some people actually do this. Ran into a group of North Dakotans with 12 muley does this year. Very happy to have tags all were shot off public. The hunting here is a skeleton of what it used to be. I try to not even go out in Montana in November it just disgusts me. To the OP I’m not familiar with 520 but most districts you can shoot a legal buck as long as your expectations aren’t high.
