Exactly why I included both residents and nonresidents in my statement. It’s not a one sided problem.

This wasn't directed at you...just general observation from other comments in the thread and generally where this conversation goes with any western state.

The problem isn’t resident or nonresident hunters following regulations. The problem is the MT FWP commission that continues to issue regulations from decades ago regarding mule deer management. How many on here complaining have wrote to the commission?? Almost the entire state of MT has a general harvest on mule deer for 3.5 months including pre, peak and post rut. This is devastating for the public land hunter but a huge money maker for the outfitters and private property owners that lease to outfitters. The money talks and it’s the public land hunter that suffers. I don’t know what the solution is but I don’t see very many other states with over the counter rifle mule rut hunts. My emails to the FWP request that the general mule deer season ends the first week of November.
