[QUOTE="AT Hiker, post: 5216881, member: 10019"] Long story short…MT game and fish has a landowner program that allows hunters on private property while paying the landowner. We secured a ranch close to our hotel, close as in within a hour, but we nearly got stuck going in. So, we were limited to public lands accessible via paved county roads. The killing grounds, as we later named it, was discovered. It was a section of county road that had some state and BLM ground touching it. We also met a random rancher, that reminded me of strength coach Mark Rippetoe playing a character on Netflix’s the Ranch. He graciously gave us permission to walk into his sections that butted up next to some public ground. This gave us a nice little chunk to catch these prairie ghost bouncing around the wide open sage. Antelope #1 down. Celebration back at the room with some classic beer flavored water in a fitting blaze orange camo can. [ATTACH type="full" alt="86EA4A7C-3763-4DB0-930B-37B23601927D.jpeg"]117529[/ATTACH] I captioned this photo “camp chores”. Antelope quarters drying in game bags. We discussed engineering some poles that attach to the roof rack to hang bags from.
