Just got back. The last 3 days the side roads were getting a little greasy with the warmer weather [50+ degree highs]. Hoping it cools down. Best year in a long time for pheasants & sharptails spotted. Bring a shotgun in case you tag out early.  :tup:

Been here since Monday afternoon,  rut has been non- existent,  alot of small bucks 2x2s , 3x3s , young 4s . Did see a Dark , heavy ,  tall ,  wide 26"+ , super deep forks 2x3 w/ eye guards today thought about dropping the hammer but he had that stupid 2" long 3rd point . Not nearly the number of Deer seen this year as the past 3 years  . Still have 5 days left .

Rut started Wednesday with little bucks with does and Thursday started seeing bigger bucks with does. The lack of weather was a real factor.

We're all done. I'll try to post pics soon. These deer are so dumb right now. I hope I didn't act like this when I was a teenager!

In Broadus they were only there on Mondays to test when we were there a couple weeks ago. Can't remember what day for Ashland.

Which  sucks if you want a European mount . I had to have a local Taxi do mine last year ( and wait 9 months for it  :'( )
 Hes caping mine out this year and skull capping it so I can bring it home to a local Taxi

Got back last week. Saw a ton of deer, but not much rut action (I was there 11/7-11/13). I lucked out and got a nice litter 3x4 and a fatty solo doe. Was a great trip, but the drive home was suuuuuper sketchy at best. They even shut down I-90 due to severe winds. Made it without incident. Awesome trip and can’t wait to go back for another round!

Assuming you are taking I90 back, you can drop the sample off at the FWP office in Bozeman or even mail it to them.
