Robby hosts Sean Clancy & Art Hayes from Citizens for Sustainable Opportunity. These guys are common-sense Montana residents looking for ways to get better Montana mule deer hunting. And no, they don’t hate non-residents!
The Citizens for Sustainable Opportunity is a group of concerned hunters, landowners and outfitters looking at ways to change the existing season structure in Montana to address problems as seen by hunters and landowners. You can link their website https://mtseasonproposal.blog/ to view the data and documents.
In this episode, they discuss what avenues there are to improve Montana mule deer hunting, and increase an individual hunter’s chance at seeing older age class bucks. They share wildlife data and look at potential biases in interpreting this data.
The Citizens for Sustainable Opportunity recognize the importance of using incentives and season dates to improve hunting vs. just creating more and more limited opportunity hunts.
This episode will help all hunters–resident and non-resident–understand the dynamics of hunting big mule deer in Montana.
If you’d like to learn more, or get involved, you can email Sean at [email protected].
