MT bound! When are you headed out?

[HillHound]

I saw that too it’s going to be awesome. We will get there Friday with a high of 60 and Saturday is snowing and a high of 30 low of 3 on Sunday. Should keep the deer moving  and we won’t have to deal with mud with those temps

This app is pretty good for looking ahead in regards to road conditions

Had to call the tip line today.☹️

Good opportunity to talk with my son about how dicey decisions often lead to a downward spiral.  You think you will just push this one thing that isn’t too terrible, but that often creates a situation where you then have to do dumb thing #2 to fix poor decision 1, and then you end up with a real mess.

It’s like chess, think two moves ahead.  We pretty much predicted exactly what was going to happen before the first shot.  Anyone not emotionally involved would have seen it clear as day.

Like reading Shakespeare, someone will have to explain it to me.

Nothing too out of the ordinary, couple of tickets issued, at least two wounded animals not located, hunter had one tag.  Chasing the animals ended up with trespassing.  I was pretty impressed, I called the tip line, got a call back from the warden in about 45 minutes and he was at the location.  I called in WA one time and got a call back 4 days later.

Last year I witnessed a bigger rodeo, two elk shot 30 minutes before light, one or two wounded (probably by the same guy) and the warden happened to be on the hill above the road watching.  A few truths were stretched and I happened to meet the warden later that day at the gas station and he had to go get a new ticket pad after that one.  They split the guys up, had 2 wardens and 2 sheriffs and got 4 different stories from 4 guys.  Apparently you are not doing yourself any favors lying when the warden saw 100% of what happened.

In Wa your lucky to get a call back, I never have

We watched people shoot a 2pt in WA a few years back and wdfw did nothing.

2nd that!  We are in NE MT right now and it's blowing snow sideways. Supposed to do this until tomorrow afternoon. Deer a holed up pretty good right now. No long range looking for a bit until it clears up. Main roads are starting to drift and the field roads are getting dicey!  Should be awesome when it does clear up. Seen over 250 deer yesterday and 36 bucks. 5 or 6 were shooter size for us, just didn't make it happen. Be here until next weekend. Good luck to everyone who is out and be safe!

Wow 250 deer! Is that normal for Montana?
