the fact of the matter is its actually fairly rare to run up against a Montanan that is dead set against nonresidents....hell i extended an offer to one of the guys participating in this thread from out of state to come out and ill show him around and he can crash at our cabin.....have extended the same invitation to many.....

push comes to shove i doubt many that voted to get rid of the outfitter sponsored tags would have a problem at looking at the nonresident tag costs in the future.....the vote wasnt about nonresidents hunting in Montana, the vote was about outfitters and their overall attitudes.....whole lot of us that voted to get rid of those tags did so knowing it was likely not going to change a damn thing with access to private land currently leased by outfitters, most residents know how to hunt just fine without getting access to that land....

whole lot of us were sick of the bullchit the outfitters were pulling and dont have a single bad word to say about out of state hunters...
