Good Montana Whitetails
« on: December 08, 2018, 07:23:02 PM »
I'm thinking about getting the deer/elk combo for Montana next year. I have shot plenty of 150-165" Muleys in Montana.  I have an itch to try and get a 140" + whitetail over there. I know there is good Wt hunting in Western Montana but my preferred hunting terrain is open grassland/crp country. I have seen a few good wt bucks in Central Montana.  Just curious how many of you guys have gotten good open country wt bucks in Montana over the years. I would even consider trading hunting spot info. I believe my hunting partners and I have done above average for MD bucks in Montana.

Wa is for Whitetail’s. If there’s a place with good mule deer numbers why would you waste a muley hunt going after Whitetail’s?  :chuckle:

Just as an observation, does anyone else notice Karl is wearing the nicest “mom jeans” ever in that picture?

Also he needs to get a buck with good fronts!  :yike:

The Milk River has produced some dandy whitetails over the years. I see some dandies hunting for pheasants but I can't hunt deer there. They have came back from the disease they had five years or so ago.
