No I do not believe the were re-introduced, I am sure there have always been some in there, but the populations of wolves have gone up in the Bob since the re-introduction into the state as more packs moved into there.
From what I have seen and heard, I think it really for some reason, depends on the area with how hard it gets hit. My experience with hunting wolf areas is from the Frank Church, and the Bob Marshell. From what I understand, wolves were released into the Frank about the same time as...
I cannot remember the brand, but it was one of the more "mainstream" brands. Wind was towards the bear, distance was 20 feet or so. This was a younger boar.
On another note I didn't add to my first post, I used bear spray for the first time last fall on a black bear. Did not work. After spraying him four times, he was just pissed off, and popping his teeth, and bluff charging.
If your not I griz country, I wouldn't bother personally, I carry a .44 on my hip all fall guiding in the Bob, and having that extra weight gets old real quick. Not to mention they are always catching on brush etc. Keep it simple
Frank Church has some great grouse and chucker. Lots of fun. Another fun one is the south side of the Bob for Grouse. Great grouse hunting, and as much about the country as the hunting.
I am sick of the newest "best" stuff. As a guide, I spend over a hundred days a year in the mountains a year. Probably significantly more than that. I have Kuiu, Sitka, Firstlite, Under Armour, but most days I wear Wranglers and a wool shirt - if its real cold then I break out the wool pants...
My girlfriend is just as excited for this one as I am, we plan on seeing it in theaters. But she enjoys watching all the badass action as much as I do! No eyerolls here!
I live a little south of Cut Bank, I would not move there. Cut Bank is a pretty crappy town, and to access good hunting you would really have to come south towards Choteau or Augusta
I was thinking price wise in the range of 200 - 400. I would be primarily using it just for myself, so I guess rated two person would be all I really need, but I wouldn't mind having on that was comfortable for two, as long as the weight difference wasn't too drastic.
Hey guys, in the market for a new tent, but going off of a guides salary, I need something economical. Any suggestions? I will be using it for backpack hunting, and also want it to be a two man. Any help would be awesome!
