    Montana Unit 340

    I would be hunting the rifle season. Here in Wisconsin when gun season opens for whitetails pretty much every non-hunter gets out of the woods. Bow season I deal with a lot of hikers, dog walkers, etc.. but come opening weekend it just stops. Is that not the case for Montana? Thanks for the...

    Montana Unit 340

    Does anyone have any experience with this unit? From what I can find online its general tag so with my 2 points I should be able to draw and its also an either sex unit. I was thinking about the areas surrounding mount humbug or the section between hwy 2 and i90. Or should I focus more on the...

    Whitetail stand cold weather bibs

    I have a slumberjack hunting cloak. Its a little noisy but super warm and easy to put on and take off up in the stand.

    Does anyone wear wool anymore?

    I have a patagonia reclaimed wool sweater that I wore a bunch this year as both a mid and outer layer. I also wear wool for skiing, hiking, and fishing. Its a comfortable material that has some pretty big pluses over synthetics.

    What's some gear you shouldn't need to get the top of the line?

    I will agree on the rifles. I have a Ruger American. I don't think they make a rifle cheaper than that and I am punching cloverleafs at 100 yards. My Hawkeye will probably become a safe queen at this point. There are just so many affordable rifles that shoot on par with many high end or even...

    Favorite "Celebratory whisky"

    I got a bottle of Suntory Hibiki as a gift and I have to say I am quite impressed. I don't think the Japanese half ass anything.

    Zamberland boots.

    I have the 960s and I'm still in the break in period. No major hot spots but they are damn stiff. They are really, really well made boots.

    Quality hiking pants

    OR Ferosi, Marmot Scree, Prana Zion. Zions are too tight for my thick legs. So I wear the OR Ferosi pants whenever its a little warmer and the screes when its a little colder since the screes are a little thicker and warmer.

    Outdoor Research?

    I have been a fan of OR for a while now. Great stuff for when camo is not a necessity.

    Redundancies...

    The best way to get that back up bow is too keep your old one when you upgrade. Its set up for you, you are comfortable shooting it, and the value of bows seem to drop every year. Even on deer hunting day sits I'll bring a back up pair of socks, a spare release, and allens to adjust the sight...

    Is Montana worth the increased tag price?

    I have looked at Montana because if I have the vacation time I can always come back if I strike out, and for rifle its any elk in most areas not a minimum of 4pts or brow tine larger than x inches. I see it as a place with more opportunity.
