Montana General Season Structure Proposal
Splitting up whitetail and mule deer hunters will help the hunter crowding issue. We also didn’t want to put excess pressure on whitetails by allowing them to be hunted for two straight months. -

Montana General Season Structure Proposal
On the flip side, there’s benefits to the August opener too. It would be possible to locate bulls in the summer and hunt them while they are still in their summer hangouts. With the archery opener varying anywhere from Sept 1-Sept 7 in our current system, I find that opening week is kind of a... -

Hopefully the ranked choice voting in Montana can gain some traction. -

Platte river issues
I believe they came up with a regulation that didn't allow you to have a bare hook, or something like that, so the workaround was to use a rock worm "fly" instead.- bigsky2

Platte river issues
When I lived in Casper from about 2011-2014, the big thing in the spring was fishing a pegged bead. You have your line looped through a bead that sits a couple inches above a bare hook, and the bead imitates a trout egg. When a fish grabs the bead, you set the hook and basically snag the fish. I...- bigsky2

Montana Mule Deer Raffle
I feel like you’re comparing Montana’s mule deer hunting with the AZ Strip or the Kaibab. No one is saying it will ever be that good. Most people on here are just saying that it has been and could be so much better than it is currently. -

Montana has definitely had excellent mule deer hunting relative to todays mule deer hunting. -

Ones that got away
My dad and I rarely hunt elk together, but in 2020 we happened to be together when we found this bull and about 10 cows and calves. My dad hung back and watched from across the drainage while I snuck in on him. I got to within 50 yards of him and a bedded cow. The rest of the cows were bedded 30... -

Montana Mule Deer Raffle
I hope we aren’t headed for limited entry, but I agree that’s where we are headed if things don’t change. I have over 20 points and I’ll be buying a point this year. Things will probably never get better, but when it only costs us $15 for a point, I might as well build up points in the event... -

Montana Proposed Black Bear Season Changes
Thanks for sharing that. I knew the changes could have a negative effect on populations here in Region 4, but based on the lack of public comment against the season extension, I was assuming the changes wouldn't negatively affect region 1 and 2. Those numbers are pretty eye-opening. The sad... -

Iowa/LSU Women’s BBall tonite
It was definitely a bummer that the game had to end like that. I wish UConn would have at least had the opportunity to take a shot on that last possession. I used to always dislike UConn’s women’s hoops teams because they won all the time. Last night I was kind of rooting for them at the end...- bigsky2
