Agreed.  And if I was a Montana resident I’d support this.

Many things to improve the Montana mule deer situation could be done. This does absolutely nothing to help. Here are some things that would actually improve the situation yet FWP has chosen to ignore:

- Want to know what’s actually going on: implement mandatory hunter reporting.

- Want to rebuild numbers: stop allowing doe harvest.

- Want better age class: stop hunting November.

- Want less pressure: region specific tags for both res and non res; get rid of discounted NR tag programs; species specific general tags (MD or WT, must choose); move B tag doe seasons (should only be whitetail b tags at this point, still can’t believe MD does are open season on private land) to dates that differ from general season.

We hunted there for 10 days mid November. I saw no overcrowding where I was at. We were in the south east corner. Saw plenty of deer. I agree with what’s been said on the doe tags.
Limit the b tags to Whitetail
Then probably increase the price from 50 bucks to 150 bucks for non-residents

Right. When we went we’d always buy a doe tag too. Already there and made the investment might as well make it worth our trip. But there were tons and tons of deer where we were at. I don’t think I’d do it with as bad as people are making it sound now.

Are they only $50 now? I thought they were around $75 when we used to buy them but I haven’t been back since 2019
