I'm gonna miss the D16 opener--out of town for a wedding, but I'm going to hit it the following weekend. Went for a final scouting trip today and didn't see a darn thing. Did see a couple lads heading in to set up for the opening tomorrow. Best of luck to all the D16 hunters this weekend! Hope...

Update: went out scouting today and ended up actually seeing some muley does along with a coyote and three separate flocks of turkeys. All on private land, unfortunately, but at least it's proof of life nearby where I'm planning on hunting. Until today, I don't think I'd ever seen a deer in...

Yeah...I suppose I should have done that. I was kinda hoping that they'd scare something up my way. Definite learning experience. Gonna try and do less bad each year and hopefully it'll pay off down the line.

I was.

First off, I'd like to thank everyone who took the time to respond to my post last year--I came away with enough knowledge and encouragement to at least get started. I did a LOT of scouting on OnX and came up with a good deal of prospective hunting grounds that looked accessible. But, I found...

Good call! I never even thought of that.

I thought of another question. How do you all deal with packing out meat? Primarily I'm concerned with the temperature. In Montana, if we shot something far enough away from camp or our vehicle, the temperature was usually cold enough that we didn't have to worry too much about getting the meat...

To answer your questions: 1) I do have a D16 tag already. 2) I can probably sneak in a hunt during the week...depending on work schedule. 3) I assume your asking about copper bullets. In that case, I do have a couple of boxes of 30-06, but the local Turner's doesn't have any 7mm Mag or .243 at...

It's rough right now. The property values seem to be right now are on par with Southern California--even in smaller, less populated areas. I'll bet that Whitefish is pretty pricey! Such a shame, really. I went home to visit last month. We were considering driving (it's a beautiful drive), but I...

Saint Ignatius. I'm sure you've passed through on the 93 on your way up to Glacier.

lol Yeah...I moved here when I was in the Marine Corps and just ended up staying. Now I've got a wife and kids--it's been a pretty hard sell trying to convince my wife that Montana is better (she's a SoCal native and not terribly fond of the idea of having to deal with inclement weather). I'm...

I'm mostly concerned about the convenience factor--at least for this year. I've read a lot about how crowded D16 is and I'm not getting my hopes up about actually taking an animal this year. Is it at all possible to get away from the majority of the crowd if I'm able to put in a lot of legwork...

Hi everyone! I'm new to this forum. I've read some posts and picked up some pretty good knowledge, but I'm hoping someone can offer some guidance. First of all, let me introduce myself. I'm originally from Montana--I grew up hunting whitetail, mule deer, and elk all around the state. I've been...
