    AZFG restricting Crossbows

    Shooting targets at 100 yards and game animals at 100 is apples to oranges due to the moving target aspect of game animals. I would be willing to wager a lot of money you are wounding a lot of game if your shooting 100 yards. I don’t care how good of a shot you are. This is a great step by...

    Giant in estes

    I did after looking at some more photos. I have been desensitized to big elk over the years. Consistently 10” plus too low which is the opposite of how I use to be.

    390 would be my guess without really breaking down his point lengths to get a better number

    Does anyone use a thermal while scanning before switching to traditional optics?

    I’m thinking some of you guys are pretty inexperienced with the latest and greatest units on the market with some of your equivalence arguments. Might want to look into it

    Does anyone use a thermal while scanning before switching to traditional optics?

    Hunt however you want if it’s legal. I still think you’re a loser if you use a thermal. It’s just my opinion. Good post thanks.

    Does anyone use a thermal while scanning before switching to traditional optics?

    To answer your question, similar opinion on cell cams. Not so much on traditional cams due to the work and effort to pull cards etc. I think state game agencies have a better understanding of what this technology is and how it’s being used. Thermals…. Not so much

    Does anyone use a thermal while scanning before switching to traditional optics?

    Thermals and the tech you guys compare it to are not on the same level. Do you know anyone that can see heat? 😂😂 But I’m not surprised. This place is all about achieving success with all means and gear legal and necessary. I think it’s paramount for hunters to speak up when technology is a...

    Does anyone use a thermal while scanning before switching to traditional optics?

    They shouldn’t be allowable. That’s my point. Why don’t we just use black hawk helicopters for hunting? Your train of thought supports this. You could get all the trophies of your dreams! The states game and fish departments are behind on their rule packages on this aweful tech in some...

    Does anyone use a thermal while scanning before switching to traditional optics?

    Even if legal, can and should are two different things. I think a lot of states are behind the curve on the use of this aweful technology. Yeah, that’s right aweful. Why? Because it’s not fair chase. Additionally any tech that increases success will have to be offset by a loss in hunter...

    You do you but if I drew a OIL tag I would focus on that. Elk tags are a dime a dozen. Ymmv

    Montana season change proposal

    It won’t help population at all. Social issue - hunter crowding would be what that addresses. It bet it would probably be uneven just like you imply. I think to begin with it would provide you with the data of where everyone is actually hunting. No doubt we are piling up on each other in...

    Montana season change proposal

    Interesting choice of words. Being told seems a bit dramatic. You would be choosing your region. It would be up to you to decide the pros and cons and plan your season. Really this is pretty normal across the west as populations increase and resources diminish. Montana is at or headed for...

    Montana season change proposal

    I can’t disagree with this.

    Montana season change proposal

    Your mixing others arguments into mine. The proposal will reduce crowding, spread out pressure, decouple elk and deer to reduce incidental mule deer buck take, and lengthen the normal curve on buck age class and bump buck to doe ratios while maintaining opportunity . That’s it. You guys came...
