Just wanted to see if anyone has had any success in Montana anytime after opening weekend.
I personally have seen 8 elk on public land, though the elk were spotted about 3 miles away on landlocked public. All the other elk I've seen have been down low on private. It's been pretty slim in finding deer on public also. I know opening weekend puts alot of pressure on critters but it seems strange to me that my hunting buddy and I could find elk and gobs of deer everyday during archery and now we can't find hardly anything.
I'm not asking where to hunt, just wondering if I'm having some bad luck or if everyone is in the same boat I am.
