    Acquiring Landowner Permission via Letter

    bullet selection for mountain goat

    MT Mule deer must haves?

    There are still some good mulies in 7. You have to be patient and not take the first one. Anything less than a four point should be allowed to walk. Scout broken country AM and late PM.
