Montana SuperTag Hunting
This year in montana, the fish wildlife and parks department created a lottery that allows the winners to hunt a species of animal anywhere in the state for the whole season. This is made to be a fund raiser, and it is doing its job. There is one tag for each species, and it is 5 dollars a ticket to enter, with unlimited tickets allowed. I tend to have mixed feelings about this. While it is doing its job and providing more money for wildlife management in the state, it is also allowing anyone with more money to have a better chance to shoot a trophy animal in montana and i am against that. I was just wondering everyone's feelings on this matter if you have heard of it...

They have drawn 3 of the 5 super tags
1-Moose - Great Falls MT Kid
1-Big Horn-Helena MT guy
1-Mnt. Goat-yep Montana guy
You know what these three have in common??? They all bought one ticket each.
Deer and Elk have yet to be drawn.
I guess that is better than the guy who spent 4 grand and came up with nothing,ouch!!!

RE: Montana SuperTag Hunting
the guy who drew the goat tag was from bozeman, which is where i live. I didn't know that they bought one ticket each, that is good news to me. Being from bozeman and living near the Flying D ranch, which is owned by Ted Turner and has some of the biggest bull elk around, it pisses me off when people get such a good oppertunity to shoot a monster trophy animal just because they have the money to fork out for it. In my opinion, a bull elk should be a well earned trophy paid for by time and work, not a check book.

If it's true that the lucky "drawers" so far only perchased one chance, good for them.
I didn't know that Ted allowed any hunting on the "D".

RE: Montana SuperTag Hunting
Hello neighbors!!! I am from Bozeman as well. I feel the supertag lottery should limit the number of tickets purchased by each person. Maybe 5/person max. That would keep if fair, and most likely increase the number of people that would buy the tickets. Anyway just my two cents. Drop a line if y'all want to chase some elk around in a few weeks.

If there is a website to your states lottery would you mind posting it here?
