Yeah, we'll be going.  Still a pretty good value in my opinion.

 :yeah:

My bro just told me Big Sky is up to $250 a day and you stand in line all day.
 

Wow. From that perspective deer and elk tags are a value! Lol that seems ridiculous but puts things in perspective

I just looked at gohunt odds and for non resident deer combo they show 74% with 0 points, 0% with 1 point, 97% with 2 and 100% with 3

I'm not a math whiz......why are the odds 0% for 1 point?

  75% of tags go to the points pool. 25% go to the zero point pool. All the 75% quota went to 2 and 3 point holders leaving 0 tags for 1pt holders. The zero point guys still had that allocated 25% to pull from.

These appear to be the odds for the non resident BIG GAME combo: 74% with 0 points, 0% with 1 point, 97% with 2 and 100% with 3

DEER COMBO is: 0- 54%, 1- 17%, 2- 100%, 3- 100%

Antelope odds are a different story.  All of the deer and elk tags that everyone is talking about on this thread are general tags.  All antelope tags in Montana are limited entry or region specific. there are no general antelope tags in Montana.   So odds are different for every unit and region in the state. They are all issued (I think) with a bonus point system where all of the general tags are issued on a preference point system I do believe.  Someone feel free to correct me if I am wrong on the specific point nomenclature.
