How many have taken elk during Montana shoulder seasons?

Postby DWBMontana » 12 14, 2018 •  [Post 1]

Just curious how many folks have taken cow elk during the shoulder seasons here in Montana. Personally I have not, I have been lucky enough to fill my tags during general season. I have however been part of successful shoulder season hunts several times. How about you?

Not yet. I'm # 16 on the game damage list in a unit that always has a hunt. As soon as we get some weather to move them down I'll get a call.

I'd like to, but I don't know where to start. As elkless as my regular seasons have been, it's pretty hard to get pumped up about postholing around in deep snow (not that it would be an issue this year) and still seeing nothing. Since shoulder seasons are supposed to be all about private land, and most BMAs are closed now, I'm SOL without any contacts.
