To be named later Montana farm

I was too late to apply for deer tags this year (non-resident), but I’ve applied to be on the alternates list if a tag becomes available. I can definitely go bird hunt, however. The place is loaded with pheasants.

I met two neighbors and the farmer leasing the fields. All super nice people who already feel like friends. It was a great, short trip.

I’m guessing everything about your new place is going to get under your skin very quickly in a good way. What is the elevation of your place?

2500 feet.

I’m sad to be leaving. Can’t wait to get my wife and boys out there.
 
No mule deer on the farm but they are in the area. Antelope are a few miles north. I think CWD is everywhere in Montana.

First time I’ve ever caught this on camera:

Man, if you've got pheasants, long strip plots of WGF sorghum/yellow sweet clover/chicory as a primary with some others thrown in for numbers could be a banger for all your game. Deer and pheasants will use it for food and cover all fall. You could keep it as simple as throw and roll once a year around the time sweet clover finishes around late July. All your forages will be back in there in time for fall.

And you'll have so damn much biomass on the ground, you'll be the last one to lose in a dry period.
 
I have turkey hunted all around that area and have seen some mounts of some giant whitetails in the local stores.

If you ever get over towards Broadus, pull into Powder River Outfitters and check out all the taxidermy work. It's impressive
