the only place up htere i hear about is the milk river
Because the realtree boys own/lease? a lot of the land on and around the milk river

You guys are 100% correct about the milk river. Realtree made the milk riverfamous & in my opinion theyhurt the hunting tradition in that area. I guess if I lived & worked a 9 to 5 job ina state where big buck are very rare, I too would hunt the milk river. Living where I do big bucks do not impress me too much.
Heck my wife shot a Pope & Young whitetail from the kitchen widow two years ago. She passed on an even bigger whitetail last year at the house, hoping to kill abig mule deer buck.

I'll spill the beans

My father, His best friend, his son (who is my best friend), and I hunt the Milk River every year. We've become very good friends with the rancher, he comes to MN every summer etc.

I love it out there, the country is far different from here in MN. I don't get the opportunity to hunt river bottoms, and huge hay fields.

It amazes me every year how many deer I see. The deer numbers in MN are not even comparable to those in MT.

It is nothing to see 300+ deer every night. I love it in MT and look forward to the trip every year.

If I got the chance to move to MT, it would be about a 2 sec decision. I'd be west bound faster than you could say go.

Now I've got that Frank Zappa song stuck in my head, " Moving to Montana soon, gonna be a dental floss tycoon....." Actually I don't mind that song being stuck.

Lived there for 10 years and have many friends that have lived there for their lives (lucky b@stards!). Seen monster Whitetails taken out of Thompson River valley... however whitetail in general are by-catch in my opinion. I'd much rather hunt elk than deer any day of the week.

The problem with jobs in that state and many other western states is everyone else stuck in the midwest is thinking the same thing, I'd sure like to move there.. then they settle for working at Home Depot or some other $10/hr job. There are a ton of both "haves" and "have nots" (rich or poor) and not a lot in between.Most people with money and big houses make it somewhere else and move there to build their mcmansion on 10 acres.. whereas the natives are mostly scraping by working at the sawmill or Walmart.

sick part is, there is great deer hunting every where in Montana...you can move anywhere int eh state (outside reservations) and be withing 30 minutes to locations you could get permission to hunt...

Eastern Montana (milk river area) is not eth best area to hunt, nor is it the best area to find good work...
