Yeah, nothing for me in Montana. Oh, I have a bear tag I could use there.
I might find myself there this fall doing a hunt.

It gets to be exhausting. Decades of applying and negative cash flow.

I drew a Mountain goat tag for unit 362. I was shock when I saw successful. I drove straight to the FWP office and bought the tag before they changed their minds.

Is the best way to get a tag is to go thru a guide or outfitter?

That would make no difference. Only way around the odds is being the high bidder for auction licenses. Assuming that's what you meant by "best."

One of my good buddies here in town drew a ram tag for 482 in the Missouri Breaks, south of the river, after 30 years of applying.
By coincidence, my wife drew a ewe tag for the same area, and we're all planning on scouting and hunting together. (It's Eileen's second ewe tag; she drew one in 1991 on the Rocky Mountain Front. Per usual, I didn't draw anything, so will once again get to go along as chief packer--as I did for BOTH her Montana moose hunts in 1989 and 2009.)

When we were looking for property in NW Montana in 2005 our realtor in Thompson Falls advised she had just drawn a BH tag after four years of trying. Her husband, a taxidermist, was on 20 something years. Two summers ago we headed over to Thompson Falls for an estate auction and noted a NICE BH on the wall of her office.
I have a friend here in Idaho (third gen PH) that drew his bull moose tag after 24 years and another, a young couple new to the state, with the wife drawing bull moose after 3 years. She never expected to draw so planned to continue to grow the family with a second child. She killed a bull being 5 months pregnant.
Conduct is the best proof of character.
