No data is better than inaccurate data. They don’t even have game checks in archery. They shut down as it gets dark in gun. It couldn’t be worse really.

Just spent eight days in western Montana with zero success. Due to the drought we could not find elk or even sign that they have even been there. The elk we did see were on big ranches in the valley laying in the fields near the creeks.Game and Fish officer said they were in severe drought conditions now.

Pretty much the same story across much of the west this year unfortunately-- dry with fires. That will change the patterns of them in a hurry...
