    Montana outfitter

    Montana Hunting Company is a big outfitter. They guide all over the state and also are the exclusive outfitter for any of Ted Turner’s ranches. Don’t know much about their mule deer hunting or where you would go but their elk hunting is world class. As for tags, currently it isn’t a guarantee...

    First Montana mule deer

    I am pretty lucky to have been raised hunting mule deer in SW Colorado every few years we could draw tags as a non-resident. 5 years ago I moved to Montana and had fun hunting the other species I now had in state taking my first elk, Antelope, and a couple of nice whitetails. Coming into this...

    Hunting Mule deer in SE Montana

    I hunted 12 days in SE Montana this season. There were lots of factors that hurt this season and drought was only one of them. The very mild fall meant the deer didn’t have to move much. We did see some late rutting but most of the does still had small bucks with them. whitetails on the other...

    Montana Rut

    I will add to it seeming delayed in SE MT. We hunted 4 days last weekend and saw very few mature bucks with does. Lots of smaller bucks had 4-5 does with them, but the does also weren’t interested. Of the 4 days I only saw one good bucks actually chasing a doe and I was able to stalk 1.5 miles...

    19 preference points in Colo. Need some help from the Rokslide crew.

    With the major changes to the season dates starting next year I think we’ll see lots of guys cashing in their points while there are still some good deer to hunt.

    Shooter Muley?

    Not for me where I hunt. He’s got great front forks and tall in the back but weak G3 on the right and none in the left, plus he’s not real wide. Let him live another year.

    Road Hunters

    We see all types in SW Colorado where I deer hunt. There are locals that just go drive around hoping to catch a glimpse of something to shoot. Then there are the guys with quads and UTVs that like to drive around right when the game should be moving, and even drive into some of the clearings and...

    First elk in MT

    Had a pretty great elk season this year in MT. We had a couple of real close encounters during archery, and then I found this bull bedded at first light on the second day of rifle season. A cow had me made at 400 yards but the bull wasn't alarmed at all. I waited about 5 minutes for him to stand...

    2019 SW Colorado Success

    2019 marked the changing of the guard for our hunting group that goes to SW Colorado every 2-3 years. I am originally from SoCal, and my family has been hunting up that way for 50 years, me being the third generation to make the trip ever few years. Even though I now live in Montana, it is a...

    Colorado 3rd verse 4th season choice

    It’s going to be much different next year I have a feeling that they are going to significantly cut 3rd season tags because of the rut. In one unit I know of it took 10 points to for a non-res to draw a 4th season tag of 40... No way they have 300 for the same week next year. I’ll put money on...

    Your most haunting or embarrassing missed shots.

    1. One trip when I was younger in my early 20s I was hunting with my dad and some of his friends in Colorado. The other guys were going to hunt their way through some thick brush, so we decided to post up below them and catch anything that got pushed out. My dad and I were sitting about 100...

    6.5 for elk

    6.5x284 worked great for me this weekend. 140gr Berger at 400 yards and the bull fell right back in the bed he had just stood up from. Not a single step...

    CO 2020 3rd Season

    I hadn't really been paying attention to the new season structure until I came across it this week. I can only imagine that DOW will significantly reduce the number of tags for third season so I wouldn't count on anything.
