Deer/Elk Combo, hopefully draw this year since we didn't last year and have a point fo rthe combo. Had had great luck of getting every other year until last year. Also applied in Arizona, points in Nevada, Utah, Wyoming, Oregon(unless we don't draw Montana then e will apply in OR) Points in Washington but hunt general season westside.

Can't do points only in MT unless it's something new this year.

I don't see that option either.  The only way I know of to garner points in MT is to give them a $643 loan for a few months... :dunno:
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.

Landowner Sponsor Deer and maybe a little Turkey.  Have yet to hunt elk there.

Had pretty good results with the Landowner tag.  Usually 3 out of 4 years get drawn..  Used to basically guaranteed 10-15 years ago.  It's odd because there is the same amount of land in the state but the odds have gone down??  Must be more landowners involved in the program thus changing the numbers.. 

No matter what I'll be over there even with a Doe tag or two.  The fishing, bird hunting, coyote shooting, and turkey hunting are to good to miss on my family's ranch.

Actually, if you only want points, put in for the Deer A Combo.  I think last year the odds were better than average, but they were still only barely above 20%.  Deer/elk is a 50% draw rate.

Yup, your correct.  Made a comment without double checking.  Thanks for the correction.

You have the option of retaining your points and returning your tags. If not for a death I believe you lose 20-25% of your money. That makes for a spendy point.
The things that come to those who wait, may be the things left by those who got there first!
