Last evening I was preparing to go out with my bride of 16 years, (celebrated last night actually, been the best 12 years of my life) and the phone rang. It was a paid intern for the State of Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks department doing a harvest survey for last year. Funny she should call as the day prior I had mailed off $1,326 to try and again hunt elk and muleys in MT this fall. Her questions were the usual, did you take any pheasants, sharptail grouse, etc.......I did take one pheasant actually ...on the front grill of my rental 4x4...and the usual questions of harvesting any deer and elk.....Anyway, she concluded by asking if I had seen any wolves or lions and I responded by saying that if I had I would probably have tried to give them the proverbial celestial dirt nap. She said that it was okay to tell her that and that they wouldn't prosecute me if I did tell her the truth. No, I replied but the S, S and S up was always on my mind. I asked her to please tell her superiors to request the legislature to change the law to shut down buck muley hunting during the rut.
She was very polite and courteous and did her job very well.
I hope my son and I get drawn. It will be his first trip hunting to MT and where I grew up, something Dad has looked forward to for many years.
