I think it's pretty cool to be able to gun hunt during the rut, but as with anything it comes with a cost. I can't say that I would advocate harshly either way as i can agree with both sides of the argument.
Thanks for the input. I'm guessing the bucks would travel a good distance to does on...
I'm also going to be hunting SE Montana for the first time. As of now I'm planning on hunting the week of Thanksgiving, but am really considering the week of the 5th or 12th instead. I feel like the rut may be winding down by the week of Thanksgiving and the hunting pressure will be more...
I'm not too worried about size. I'm going for the experience and to hopefully bag my first mule deer. My only concern is traveling that far solo. Anything happens and it just makes it that more difficult.
I'll be targeting mule deer with a rifle. I can't say I'll be passing on a whitetail, though.
I'm in the Grand Rapids area. I would appreciate any discussion on the topic.
Hi All,
I went and got a deer combo this year and am planning on going solo. Reaching out to you folks at hunttalk to see if there is anyone who wants to team up or has room for one more. I'm fine with doing a solo hunt, but am realizing the drive and cost of going alone will be a bit much...
Good to know. I'm going solo on this one and decided to let fate decide with o points. Sure enough I drew. I now need to make plans or contemplate this refund. I didn't think successfully drawing would be stressful lol.
