There are no deer in Montana...

I completely agree.  Not a single one.  The wolves at the last deer several years ago.  I'm surprised they are still selling deer combo licenses.

While deer numbers were not back to what they were 5-6 yrs ago, the numbers of animals I saw were much improved last yr. I spoke to a butcher last week from Eastern MT & she told me they were having an average to mild winter. Hoping we all draw & have a great 2017!  :tup:

I have hunted Montana a few times with good success.
All DIY trips for deer and elk.
Three bucks and one bull.
If drawn this year we are going on a drop camp trip.
Should be fun.

For the first time guys, if you get drawn, don't take it for granted. Yes, you'll see deer where ever you go. But in this day and age, do some research and pick a spot, stay with it and enjoy it all. First time I went was 99' and it changed my hunting life. I've applied every year since and will retire there some day. Had one of my best trips ever last year and am banking on going again this year.  :tup:

Neither, bandsman. I'm putting in for an antelope tag this year, and from reading the regs, I though I'd be able to buy a B permit for deer to try to fill my freezer. Glad I found out now.

You are able to get a deer B tag.  You don't need to have the deer combo to hunt with a B tag.  I'd get it when they become available in June instead of taking the chance that they will be available over the counter at a later date.
