    Montana season change proposal

    I grew up poor. Rutting mule deer bucks wasn’t a staple of my diet.

    Harvest stats from Montana for you guys to chew on. Thats a lot of bucks getting shot out of region 6 and 7. Does anyone know of another state that allows nonresident mule deer harvest to exceed resident. You guys are advocating to burn the resource down for the sake of your opportunity to...

    Don’t shoot does and now this. I guess we have found our common ground. I hope this proposal gains some steam. Best of luck to you @Formidilosus

    Does Utah have a general rut hunt that I don’t know about?

    The rut lasts longer than 2 weeks I would hope you understand that. Montana general season encompasses the majority of the rut. Currently we have just short of 27k nonresident deer hunters and all of the residents that potentially could all be hunting in the same region or district. The...

    So do mule deer in towns. They don’t have a gun to their throat every day.

    I believe you are discounting the pressure of humans aspect. Sheep would not thrive under those conditions. Some predators have two legs and constant pressure takes it toll. I find it hard to believe you have much experience with Montana mule deer. Whether you are a forky hunter or a mature...

    Why is no other state hunting the whole mule deer rut with a general tag? I would think the biologists would advocate for this if what you are presenting is true.

    The whole reason I joined this forum is I honestly want to hear @robby denning opinions on a state wide general mule deer rut hunt. He has a ton of knowledge and I respect him.

    Montana season change proposal

    You can say it’s not a biological problem but when there is so much pressure from out of state and western Montana hunters and locals on public land that deer will no longer live on public. Something needs to change. The proposal distributes pressure, I am taking the whitetail tag every year...

    You know I actually have read and respect a lot of stuff that you have posted. You are way out of line on this one. Keep dropping scopes and testing bullets.

    Don’t argue with an idiot because they will drag you down to their level and beat you with experience?

    Montana season change proposal

    I live in eastern Montana. There is a good reason these conversations are coming up and a good reason MTFWP put together a mule deer committee. Our hunting is a shell of what it was. You are showing your knowledge. Honestly the people opposing this proposal are either inexperienced or don’t...

    I’m not emotional at all I’ve watched a mule deer herd get decimated by a rut hunt for 30 years of my hunting experience and see a better path forward. Why aren’t the biologists you speak of lining up for a general rut hunt in every state?

    Not according to Grundy buck harvest doesn’t matter. Open it up to rut hunting and stop doe harvest, problem solved. It is absolutely ludicrous the people trying to defend a statewide general rut hunt. It’s wrong on so many levels.

    Montana season change proposal

    I would like @robby denning to do his next podcast on the benefits mule deer see from a state wide general rut hunt. Maybe there is a reason he has never had a podcast with any Montana biologists. Why is no other state doing a general rut hunt? If buck harvest doesn’t matter why aren’t states...
