Nonresident Alternate's List | Montana FWP

Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks gets a number of unused nonresident Combination licenses (Big Game Combo, General Elk and General Deer) returned by customers each year. FWP resells these returned licenses through our Alternates List.

I was too late to apply for regular tags this year, and I don’t qualify for landowner tags yet. The alternates list was my only shot at a tag. After the randomization I was almost dead last. Doh!

Okay I got you, it’s basically a waiting list.

Cut - First time I’ve logged in here for a while. Congrats on the land purchase! Gonna enjoy following along on your journey.

Some bucks are starting to show up:

Big old bucks.

I think this is a new buck.

Check PerfectCircle.farm for tree recommendations. Buzz is in Vermont, so zone 4. He's been trying all sorts of stuff to see what survives. What kind of annual rainfall do you get there? Could be a limiting factor too.

I'm going to stick my neck out and say it's the same one as 04:58:26. Left brow is 3/4" longer, and you can see a shadow of the shorter G4's in the front. Head's slightly lowered makes the left G2 look longer? Either way, if it's one or if it's two, they are shooters for sure.

I think they are different but definitely not 100% sure.

I hope they are two different bucks, with all you went through losing your other property, and the challenges of buying in Montana, you deserve some great hunting there for sure, and hopefully you can improve the land and it get's even better!

Thanks, MM. I’m headed out to Montana Saturday to meet the new house tenant and to get the house ready for him. I’m also going to put another trail cam out.

On Monday, I’m going to meet with the local NRCS agent to see what programs are available. I’m also hoping to meet with Ducks Unlimited Montana.

When I get back next week, deer season starts Friday in SC. Lots going on.

Why were giant whitetails in Montana not on my radar?
