Montana posted their alternate lists for elk and deer combos. I’m #233 on the elk combo list. That should do the trick, I just don’t know when I’ll get the call. Good luck to everyone.

I've got a buddy who is #364 of 3043 remaining. What are his odds of actually getting a tag? Any educated guesses???

He will get a tag. It’s more a question of when.

NR mule deer alternate #2400+ of 3942 total. Flamed out 🔥🔥🔥3 years in a row on MT elk and mule deer w/$50 pref point purchases, then end up way out of reach on alternate lists... Buds getting NR Gen Combo tags every year. If I draw MT in 2022 I will have paid $200 in preference points per tag awarded.

Am 3 for 21 on NR tag apps over last 3 years for 3 states. One silver lining is that there will be a contraction after the license demand boom peaks. I hope people on the receiving end of hunter dollars know what a business cycle curve looks like.

Happy and safe hunting to all that get an alternate tag! :)

How far down the list do they typically get on the Combo?
I spoke to MT License Sales about this earlier in the year. I was told that up until last year (Covid), anyone with a number under 300 had a good chance of getting a call/email for a NR Deer Combo license. I did not ask about the NR Big Game (Elk+Deer) Combo chances.

I’m 264 on the Big Game..... would it be beneficial to put in for a surplus as well? I’m still confused on how they work.

Could be tomorrow, could be October. It's a crapshoot for when people decide they aren't going
