I have enjoyed hunting NM and UT over the past few years. This year I am going to be trying out CO. I was considering giving Montana a shot in the future, but I was on the fish and game website doing some research and the success rates for deer/elk on public land are horrible. Am I reading this information correctly? With all of the positive things I have heard I would have expected a much better report. I'm not sure I want to burn a week's vacation and purchase a tag for single digit or low teens success rates. Do you guys out there that hunt MT usually get your elk or deer? I am willingly to hunt hard away from roads, but it seems as though that might not help. Maybe I am reading this report incorrectly. Have the wolves really done that much damage? I would appreciate any feedback from the local guys or people who hunt MT. Thanks
