I am looking for some guidance. By August of next year, my wife and I will be residents of Montana. The first year there will be spent hiking, scouting and learning the land since I would be considered a non-resident. Plus I think it will be time well spent.
I started to poke around on the State's website about hunting for elk and deer. Good lord, I'm just a simple guy from Massachusetts. I buy a license, a few stamps and I can hunt anywhere where I know some anti will not walk by and slice my tires. Restricted zones, lotteries, etc., are a whole new world to me. Is there a place on the web I can go to or a book I can buy that would at least get me going in the right direction? I bowhunt, shoot muzzleloader and plan to hunt with a rifle (can't hunt with a rifle in Mass for things like deer).
Thanks Pete
