Some Wa. Hunters in E. MT.
« on: September 11, 2018, 05:49:46 PM »
This is just kind of an FYI of what I have been hearing on a daily basis.  I  am currently out in E. Montana, Terry, MT. to be precise. The past two weeks I have been learning the area, getting a P.O. box, set up local bank account etc. etc along with daily scouting. 
I keep hearing the same comment over and over.  Those Washington hunters your the worst groups ever.  What they are talking about is groups with lots of B tags just stacking up the carcasses in their camps and not taking care of them.  I have heard this from over a dozen different people.
So I just thought I would pass this along if you are headed this way.
You will find this small community very welcoming to hunters.  I  personally would like to see it stay that way.

Sad deal.  Always some bad apples. I used to live in ekolaka mt extreme se mt)and they always said out of state hunters kept that town running when the saw mill shut down.  Some day I’ll move back to the area. Loved it there. This was 97’-98’

Idaho is the same way, getting sick of the WA plates everywhere mucking up old hunting areas locals grew up hunting.
~but the local businesses love it

big money coming out of WA locking up big chunks of Montana land for birds, locals used to hunt it growing up now these ranches are being bombed with no trespassing signs everywhere



sad and unavoidable at the same time.

But a local Montanan with a whole moose hanging with hide & wrapped in a tarp for a week in the heat is ok.  :dunno: or driving round for a couple days with unskinned antelope. Could also probably witness this anywhere. I think there are a lot more respectful hunters than slobs, they just get noticed more.

In the Nile people stack their carcasses up at the trail head,People come and grab them and use the hides.

Is there a place to take these carcasses in MT?I know here were supposed to either leave it or take it home and use it,Not supposed to send it to the dump.

My point is that it sounds like complaining about a problem that they don't have a solution to.If i'm wrong on any of what i posted please tell me so i and others that do the same know.

Good point.
How exactly are people expected to "take care of them"?

OK  :tup: what is an unprocessed animal?Are you saying that the good people of MT. are accusing hunters from WA. of going all the way there,killing big game after paying for out of state hunting and are leaving their big game wasting without so much as taking out the meat?

I thought long and hard before I posted this as just an FYI knowing that just about everything on Hunt Wa turns out confrontational.  I was just repeating what I have heard from the locals.
For the real hunters on here have a great season.  For the internet hunters keep dreaming.  I am out. 
Maybe I'll check back in in the Spring.
