Hunted 416 public land this past year and went 2-4 on cows. I shot a big cow first day and saw three bulls the rest of the first week of rifle while trying to find a mule deer buck. Our group should have gotten another so 3-4 would have been a very good success ratio. We hunted hard and it's...
Bring it on! Hunting in PA and knowing what hunting pressure is I could not tell the season started. The only thing I agree with is that even in the heavy hunted area the hunters are older "I'm 50" and can't or are not able to get to where the elk are. As everyone has said our kills and...
Just got back from Montana on Saturday. First time hunting one of those "high pressured" Montana areas that everyone says is crawling with hunters in the Little Belts. I was party leader and spent a ton of time researching on here as well as other places and calls to FWP and the rangers in the...
Called them on Friday and then said he should be good as they average 300 turned in for years it didn't sell out in the first draw so who knows but we are staying optimistic. It's a shame that I put us in as a group and the group didn't get drawn but 3 of 4 got picked individually

Three of the four of our group got tags this year the one guy put in for the redraw and got number #136. I think this should be low enough to get a tag anyone heard of how many tags got turned in? I guess we will know later this week or next Monday.
You got the same results as I did for the combo draw. You are successful as an individual but your group was not selected. Myself and one other guy in our group of 4 got drawn but two guys didn't! They told me when I called that unsuccessful groups were released back in to the individual draw...
So our group was not drawn for the big game combo but two of the four of us got individual NR big game combo tags. One person is gonna try to get the left over elk combo tags and the other is undecided and really wanted the chance to take a mule deer. It sounds like there may be some big game...
