Title: Montana
Post by: chiefeng on September 30, 2014, 02:11:51 PM: Starting to get stoked going to Montana deer hunting 3rd week of November. Taking my son on his first deer hunt, wish we had the hunting here that they have in the other western states.

I live in area 4 now.

have the white tails started to recover yet in your area?
Title: Re: Montana
Post by: cipryan on October 23, 2014, 08:09:03 AM: No, the southeast portion of area 4 didn't get hit as hard. I was out hunting pheasants down by the Mo a few days ago and could still see carcasses laying down there from last year. Its bad when theres so many carcasses that the coyotes can't get to them all.

Post by: ribka on October 23, 2014, 04:58:21 PM: What a shame . Used to be a premier area for whitetails. I stopped hunting in 4 three years ago after seeing more carcasses than live deer. Hopefully recover within a few years. Love that area up in 4 though. I know the locals up there are starting to see more and more grizzlies

thanks for update

Post by: 270Shooter on October 23, 2014, 08:45:26 PM: I was antelope hunting up between the Teton and Marias rivers off the bootlegger and only saw 10 deer in 3 days. We did see a moose down by the Teton though.

Obviously you probably already know this. But the CMR closes on November 15 for Mulies.

Get a spotting scope and go watch the brutes that hang out on the east side of the lake.

That part of eastern mt is my homeland.

Post by: chiefeng on December 06, 2014, 03:11:03 AM: Tagged out My son shot his first deer only had the tag an hour. It was a great hunt saw tons of deer every day, but man was it cold the first couple of days -10 at night. My son got his deer on BLM land about an hour from camp by the time we got it back it was dark and cold really cold. The deer was freezing faster then we could skin it darn beer froze after one drink :bash: lol. I'll be back :IBCOOL:
