    Saving Idaho Elk

    There are plenty, no doubt. But he asked about the highest concentration, which is most definitely north of that line.

    Those two things cancel each other out.

    Idaho Moose

    That's probably the hardest moose tag to fill in the lower 48. There is a very realistic chance that there isn't a single moose in the unit at any given time. The last bull I saw in that unit was on the 500 road near Cayuse Lake. That's probably your best bet.

    Meat Processing near Dillon, MT

    This. The meat processing is called L&S meats. I've sent a lot of people to them over the years and never heard a complaint.

    Packing meat at night in grizz country?

    Exactly my opinion. If there's going to be a problem, 95% chance it's when you return to the carcass. Walking though the woods in the dark with meat on your back isn't an issue at all.

    Lifted Subaru

    That's a cool setup, and would make a fun hunting rig. I have a suspicion with those tires and lift though, that it may not get any better mileage than something like an older Xterra or Blazer. Subarus aren't fuel efficient to begin with, and with turning that much weight on the axles, it could...

    Montana residence please chime in

    I've done a lot of sub-contrasting work with NWE, and have interacted with a bunch of their employees. It seems like hhey're a pretty good operation to work for, especially for Montana.

    Fall Bear Idaho - Unit 17

    Yes. Those berries grow along the streams in the canyon bottoms. Bears create an incredible amount of shit when they're in hyperphagia. If you're not stepping on bear shit every third step, you need to find a better spot. The last bear I killed in there in the fall was at a little under 10...

    Fall Bear Idaho - Unit 17

    Glassing won't do you much good in the fall. For the most part the bears are going to be in the overgrown creek bottoms eating sarvisberry, chokecherries, elderberries and hawthorne berries. You need to get down in that thick nasty and either post up where there's sign, or still hunt. Chances...

    Decisions of a 23 year old/2019 Hunts

    Move to Alaska and marry a chubby girl that can cook. Work is highly overrated, worry about that when you get out there. I have friends that are poor and can hunt out of their back door, and friends who are rich but have to get on a plane to go hunt. It's not even close how much happier the...

    How do you hunt bears?

    All of the above depending on the season and situation.

    goHunt - is it sometimes "off", or am I stupid? Probably the latter....

    If I need to explain to a game warden why I killed an animal where I did, when I did, I like my chances much more citing the state issued regulations than gohunt.

    goHunt - is it sometimes "off", or am I stupid? Probably the latter....

    Because when you get it directly from the source you know the information is correct. I don't like relying on a game of telephone to get that important of information. I did the free trial, and the amount of information that was wrong was crazy. Not even opinionated stuff like trophy...

    goHunt - is it sometimes "off", or am I stupid? Probably the latter....

    It would be one thing if that's all they did, but in top of that they make up bogus "insider" information that misleads hunters. But if you're that gullible maybe that's a good thing.

    Help burning 8 points?!?!

    In that point range, it's worth the extra coin to get in to the special draw. Look for any unit that took 6 or 7 in the special last year. Any of these tags will be incredible. What you'll find is that your ability to field jusge will be the limiting factor way more so than amount of bucks to...

    Montana unlimited and bonus points

    You have to elect in to the bonus point system on your application. If you dont elect in (don't check the box) they won't use your points. You can do the same thing if you want to take a year off from applying for a ram tag and go for a ewe.
