Over the years of going to Montana I occaisionally put in for a Deer B tag so I can bring home two for the freezer. I noticed that there are almost no Deer B tags this year in comparison to years past. Especially in the 4,6 and 7 hundred units. I know the winter kill has been extreme recently in 4 and 6 hundred units. I talked to a biologist last year on the way home and asked why they continued to allow all those deer to be killed and he said that hunters have little impact on the winter kill recovery...I guess they must have changed their minds?
