Hunted around Big Timber and passed quite a few bucks. I saw one really nice buck about a 1/2 mile away and could not find him. It was blowing 40 mph that day. Could not find one I liked so ended taking this typical Montana buck last day.

123 amax again
he ate well

I didn't know deer season opened this early. You should come back to stupid Wisconsin where you hunt 10 yrs before you see a decent buck, , , , on public land up north where you came from.

Rifle doesn't open for another 2 months.

Must be a last year's buck(currently still in velvet).


95F and windy this afternoon, shooting a damn deer is about the last thing I'd want to do!

Sorry last year's

last year's 2016 buck. The area does not have great genetics/minerals as most of the racks dont have much mass. Made a quick clean kill, saw lots of bucks antelope every day met some really nice folks . Hunt can't be much better than that imo

Week before Thanksgiving.

yep 260.

Drew a landowner tag for 2017 again. Hopefully something decent will show itself this year. Enjoy seeing 20 to 30 bucks a day though

I grew up in Wi and would go back every November to archery hunt the Nov rut. I stopped going about 10 years ago because the deer number dropped so much. Shame what the wolves did there. DNR really screwed up. Some of my friends just stopped deer huntingin WI.

Used to be fantastic hunting in the 70's 80's and 90's.
