    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    🙋‍♂️ Count me in as one of those, for many reasons.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    This represents a ton of work from a lot of people. I'm grateful for their work. This is not easy to plow through. When I look at how much opportunity continues with this proposal and compare it to the current system, I think these proposals are beneficial to deer/elk in Montana, even if it...

    Congratulations to @Big Fin, conservation leader!

    Thanks to all of you. Hunt Talk is a large part of the eyes and ears of our platforms. I pick up a lot of information here and have formed some valuable relationships with people who are working their butts off in their respective states. This is a cool recognition that means a lot to me, my...

    NM 43 for Deer

    Yeah. I’m at MSP, on my way home from two weeks of travel and that stuff gets posted. I don’t have time for that, especially when it is directed at a guy who’s been through the shit Cushman has. Hopefully the guy is a good of a hunter as he is at making implies threats. If so, he’ll kill a...

    2024 BHA Rendezvous in Minneapolis

    Dan’s work should be appreciated for anyone drawing a Colorado sheep permit. His words to thank everyone and deflect accolades from himself to others was noted. The act of advocacy is a selfless endeavor and he exemplifies such. Happy to see him recognized. He made a point to tell me of the...

    Solar Energy Comments due April 18, 2024

    Agree. Great point. The reality is, we need energy. We aren't going to stop energy development, and it wouldn't be responsible to advocate for no energy. We need to require that these projects accommodate wildlife, even if it adds costs. Without a voice given to wildlife, lowest cost will be...

    Solar Energy Comments due April 18, 2024

    One of the largest proposals in a long time is open for public comments. It is the proposal to allow large scale solar development in many wildlife-rich areas of the west. The WyoFile folks do a great job of explaining the possible impacts of such in Wyoming. The same can be said for many of...

    FILM act

    Nobody in LEO has time to watch the videos. They're busy with people cooking meth, illegal logging, motorized trail violations, cabin vandalism, fights in campgrounds, squatters living permanently on USFS, and you name it. This stuff gets pushed way down their priority list. The number of LEO...

    FILM act

    It's an interesting discussion, for sure. Compliance right now is so low, it's laughable. If this passed, the Feds would likely get more revenue by much higher compliance. But, maybe I'm being a fool to think it would bring the noncompliant folks into the loop. The Feds would no longer incur...

    Its a mad mad world!

    Another recent thread that is completely useless for the issues of hunting, conservation, and access. There must be some bored people in world for some of the recent to be worthy of time to discuss on a hunting forum. This one is locked. I'd caution people to start using discretion in their...

    Really, Wyoming?

    Not sure some of you realize how many people of color are on this board, or have family members and hunting friends who are people of color. Some of them have hunted with me (both on and off camera), have been on the podcast, and have been part of our social media posts. Some have contributed a...

    Really, Wyoming?

    I've been on the road most of the winter and I'm on the road most of this month. My tolerance for the childish bullshit is getting really thin, really fast. Get this thread back on track and keep it there.

    Really, Wyoming?

    Let's focus on the issue at hand; the wolf and the idiot who has given a ton of explosives to the groups who want to blow up state-based wildlife wolf management.

    Fresh Tracks Weekly - Reform the EAJA for wildlife

    I am all for accountability and doing things correctly. @Nameless Range gives a good example, a very common example, of how they prevail on non-substantive issues. Not in any meaningful way, rather what most would call "technicalities" in very complicated laws, or in how those laws are applied...
