    What makes a "good" hunter?

    That's a good question. There aren't many really good hunters that are also really good advocates, and vice versa. Most of the best advocates I've known are pretty mediocre hunters. Most of the best hunters I know are pretty mediocre advocates. Seems a bit unfair to try to define a good hunter...

    Corner Crossing latest

    In a state legislature dominated by AG interests, they're going to pass something like that in Wyoming? Was it alcohol or drugs that fueled your critical thinking on this matter?

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    Stay the course on the original proposal...let the naysayers, well, naysay all they want. I respect the proposal and the guys in the working group that put it together, yes, even you @Eric Albus...there I said it, as painful as it was. 😂 😆

    For a few years, then you'd be just taking your primitive weapon for a hike.

    Corner Crossing latest

    Better example is a river or stream, which adds value. I remember when stream access passed, like corner crossing landowners now, they went ape chit that it would decrease property value. It was all nonsense, the same way they're now claiming corner crossing will devalue their property. Pack...

    I think vodka breaks might have been a factor.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I think it's more than a rice bowl they're trying to protect, it's trying to protect the resource from getting pounded flat.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    I don't think the idea is to make Montana like every other state, many of which are have the exact same issues, if not worse issues. I still think canning the ml hunt is the best idea. No reason for it.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    Why shouldn't rifle hunters get a week in mid September for bull elk? Why do archery hunters always get first crack at everything? The December ml season was because the protected/privileged class in Montana (archery hunters) threw a fit. Best thing imo, would be to shit can the muzzleloader...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    Its not a horrible idea, but I just think a month to archery hunt elk and deer, and then continue to archery hunt the general seasons is more than generous. Better than choose your weapon.

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    Who says you can't archery hunt during the general deer seasons? I've seen a few hard core archery guys hunting both elk and deer during general season. The way they hunt deer isn't any different during the general season, in particular tree stand whitetails. It's not like their archery...

    Montana General Season Structure Proposal

    Holy shit, you're worrying about mule deer hunters "pushing elk" during the month of October then propose that garbage you just did? One of the best things Wyoming does is to not overlap elk and deer seasons. Not hunting Mule deer in the rut is another good thing. The season structure where I...

    Congratulations to @Big Fin, conservation leader!

    I met with Rep. Westerman in D.C. last year, he's a pretty down to earth guy. I think he and Randy would get along just fine. He's pretty well schooled on forest health issues, fire, etc. only member of Congress with a Forestry degree. Also hunts, fishes, and spends time outdoors. He also does...

    Stop Blaming Conservation Orgs

    First amendment applies all right, say what you want about whatever org you think isn't doing things your way. I'll take that complaint, critique, whatever you want to call it into consideration. If that's all you do, I'll respond in kind by simply ignoring it or giving it the proper 20 seconds...

    Stop Blaming Conservation Orgs

    Real simple response to hunt quietly, IMO. Matt's brother has been responsible (directly or indirectly) for about $200K in the corner crossing issue, where's Hunt Quietly been on the issue? I guess hiding under the bed with most the other groups. That's why I don't really pay attention to the...
