Montana Preference Points Planning- 2024 & 2025 Elk Hunts
The only thing I would add is to apply for an impossible draw permit just in case you do draw you can get your 80% refund because you won’t draw the permit -
Montana Preference Points Planning- 2024 & 2025 Elk Hunts
This is straight from the regs : All accumulated preference points, including any purchased at the time of application, will be used during the current drawing whether you purchase an additional preference point or not. The department shall delete a person's accumulated preference points if:- A... -
Montana Preference Points Planning- 2024 & 2025 Elk Hunts
Hey so I wasn't able to find anything for sure but I was listening to a podcast that talks about the draw system in Montana and they were saying you're better off applying as a party. You'll actually have a better chance of both people drawing if you apply as a party. So I take back what I said... -

Such a weird draw system. I can’t believe people return general tags when they only get 80% back and lose their points Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

Montana Preference Points Planning- 2024 & 2025 Elk Hunts
Yeah I sense point creep in the future of general tag applications. Choice of weapon and season will inevitably follow. Our days of hunting all the general units from September to December are numbered. -

Thanks for the link I’ll have to check it out if they’ve made changes or clarifications in the general draw -
Montana Preference Points Planning- 2024 & 2025 Elk Hunts
I know you’re not saying he didn’t draw and yeah I know according to the numbers you’re not supposed to be able to. Just trying to point out the fact that there’s something wrong with the way they do the draw system here where people who have drawn on 1 point and sometimes people apply as a... -
First time maceration
Sorry man I saw this when you posted it and forgot to reply later. Yeah it came out alright. I think I left it in the water too long without changing it. It came out with a bunch of little white dingleberries all over it that I thought would simmer off but I ended up having to pick off by hand...- cjadams25

Montana Preference Points Planning- 2024 & 2025 Elk Hunts
There’s a chance because the system is messed up my dad drew with 1 point in 2021 and 2 points in 2023. You can pretty reliably draw with 2 but I’d tell people trying to draw general that they have a better chance drawing with 0 than 1 based on the previous year’s odds. Sent from my iPhone... -

Montana Preference Points Planning- 2024 & 2025 Elk Hunts
It depends on what you’re trying to do. If you’re willing to wait longer to ensure both people draw a general tag at the same time then party applications might be right for you, but if you’re looking for the best shot at drawing next year, both people have a higher chance of drawing as an... -
2024 Montana Elk Permit Strategy
Much appreciated. I use OnX for most of my scouting and gohunt for draw odds/hunt filtering and then take to the forums when I need some advice. I’ll be sure to add contacting the local biologist to my tool belt. This application season is gonna look a lot different from previous years and I’ll... -
2024 Montana Elk Permit Strategy
If we're able to see elk, I feel good about getting a shot and if push comes to shove I have a couple buddies that would be willing to help out with the pack out and would probably love to help out on a hunt in the breaks. I've always wanted to hunt the breaks its just hard to justify getting...
