When are you going to MT for your deer hunt?
« on: June 14, 2020, 03:06:10 PM »
Hey guys,
   Just curious what week y’all are heading out for your Montana deer hunts this fall? I went the week before thanksgiving last year and had a blast. I was lucky enough to get drawn again this year and just trying to figure out what week to go.. i was considering the first week of Nov this year, but still not sure. How about y’all, when are you guys headed over this year?

 My ideal week would be the week before or the week of Thanksgiving. But for some reason the other guys don’t want their families mad at them for skipping Thanksgiving so we never do that. The last time we went the week before and it was awesome. Due to one person driving a quality deer tag here it looks like will be going for the first week of November this year. I sure hope the snow and cold weather has set in. I’d much rather be froze to the bone then be dealing with the gumbo

I don't have any vacation time so I'll be weekend hunting MT this year. I'll go for the opener and possibly the following weekend and then the long 4 day Thanksgiving weekend. Not ideal but better than sitting at home watching people post pics of MT bucks  :chuckle:

that's the money slot! Rut switch flips on the 8th. If I could block out any time to go it would be 8th through the 16th

I'll be heading over on November 13th.  I think the 14th or 15 or maybe it's the 16th is no moon.

My brother and his buddies are twisting my arm for an opening week mule deer where I grew up, I'll probably end up doing that.  I have a great chance at drawing an antelope tag in a different part of the state so I may be going back to hunt that plus a whitey doe second tag in November. 

I'm looking at two week long trips, probably fly the first one and put it in the freezer and pick it up during the second trip I drive over for.
