Montana Surplus Tags

[Karl Blanchard]

I told myself that I am gonna kill a branch bull for Aaron this year so since I didn't draw in Wa I bought a OTC tag for the unit I drew for deer in Colorado.  However the more I think about it, Aaron wasn't a rifle hunter and like me he loved to call elk so now I am thinking of a MT elk archery hunt.  Only state that will work with my vacation time (Sept. 28- Oct 6th). Still undecided though as I have no clue where to go for elk in that state, mule deer yes, elk no.  Might just stay home and find some poor sap with a muzzy permit to drag around for a week. Gotta love the fact that you can now use Montana as a fall back plan if other states fall through. -Karl

  Appreciate the offer sir but this one is a little too personal to share.  I think I got it figured out.  Now to get my shoulder back into "bow bending" shape.  Blew it out this spring and its still a little iffy.  Hope you drop the hammer on a brute this fall  -Karl

Last year I was able to get deer tags after season had started, I expect the same this year.

[Bigshooter]

I think deer combos will sell out this year.  Last year deer combos didn't go on sale until August.  And there are less deer combos for sale this year and they went on sale in May.

Does any one know if its possible to buy a second out of state deer tag for montana if you fill your first one. When I have hunted Idaho out of state you paid the out of state fee for the first one and if there were more available you could go back into town and buy one for the same price as the resident tag.

[Bigshooter]

Can't do that in MT.

[DRENALINJUNKIE]

We bought 4 deer tags this morning. Headed east in November to chase some deer with my dad and good buddy with his dad should be a great trip. There were only 78 left as of this afternoon.

They are now sold out of deer combo; you can still buy big game combo and elk . there r 6 of us heading for s.e Montana to chase deer. Good luck to everyone
