Re: Very cool widgeon

There are two possiblities here. 1st it coud be the result of an american/eurasian hybrid x eurasian cross or american/eurasian hybrid x american widgeon. Either of these crosses would explain the coloration. Its not likly its a straight eurasian x american cross. The picture doesnt really show all ...

Re: Montana District 300 Mule deer

Party hunting is illegal. I wasnt there and dont know the details but I am sure if they were doing that tickets were issued. Its a fine line between party hunting and tagging and elk that drops out of a herd even if the hunter doesnt think he shot at that one. Not sure about the legalities of taggin...

Re: Montana District 300 Mule deer

Not my bag of tea for sure. I enjoyed packing out the cow and 5x5 we shot on the opener. I would have enjoyed packing out the 330+ bull my buddy missed more but oh well. What did the rancher do that was illegal. Nothing. There is nothing in the regs that says a private landowner can not take someone...

Re: Montana District 300 Mule deer

So you would pass up a 24" buck that scores 190-195 for a 30" buck that doesnt make it into the 170"s? Oh well have fun.

There are some very nice deer in there, But the statements that 30" deer are common and that "you will have no problem finding a 30" buck" are false.Yup there are some, a few are killed every year. Last year ...

Re: Paunsaugunt Rifle Buck - Utah

Great buck, No doubt but I guess I tend to also disagree on some of the measurments myself. No way it has 3" g1s or 8" bases.. I would love to see a buck of this calibre in my deer unit in about 3 weeks.

Re: 2008 season...so far

The alberta hunt was a sweet deal. I have been taking a long time family friend on hunting trips for years here in MT. One day he called to tell me he wanted to take me on an elk hunt for big bulls. He said to find an outfitter. After searching the internet and calling outfitters and thier refrences...
