Montana roster hunts
« on: August 14, 2014, 08:15:43 PM »
I just noticed that I am #2 on the elk roster for the area I put in for.  Anyone get a roster call before?  How long advance notice do they give you?  I just signed up and don't really know too much about the program.

I admit it: I have no idea what a "roster hunt" is.  Please educate me.  Is this system unique to Montana?

I was expecting a misspelled Montana  pheasant hunt thread.

He said elk.  :dunno:  I am curious I never heard of it.
"Shoot the spike".  It's much easier to pack out!

Not in the title before I opened the thread. Failed attempt at being funny. Never heard of it either.

If it's anything like the waiting list for deer tags I was called about 80% of the time.

Apparently it is a well kept secret.

I can be there in about 11 hours unless I happen to be on a work trip.  Still number 2 and keeping my fingers crossed.

you will get a letter in the mail.  don't expect anything until after the season ends and they run through february 15.  they are all structured very differently based off landowner preference.   unit?
Tell me how many pieces of flair you want me to wear.

Still #2 for elk in 315, can't remember why I picked that one.

#22 for deer in 315 as well.

Heading out Thursday for elk, deer & antelope.  Hopefully I won't need a backup plan.
