Montana Elk Hunting

[dbwilson]

Has anyone ever hunted in Southern Montana near Yellowstone in the Tom Miner Basin? Dad and I are looking at booking a hunt this fall and I'm looking for some feedback from people who have hunted the area.

Sunrise this morning from Ennis looking at the Madison Range. There's a lot of elk in southern Montana, but my son who lives here has sworn me to secrecy. I've never heard him mention that specific place.

I hunted between Bozeman and Billings two years ago. It was an outfitted hunt on private land, but we had a great hunt. Saw lots of elk and a few great bulls. We ended up going 2/3 on 6x6 bulls and got the drop on a big black bear.

What a great view. Wish I would have gotten out more often when I lived in the Northwest.

Thanks for the feedback guys!

I have a great sunset yesterday taken out the window, sitting at the end of a bar having a beer with my son. The sunrise is better. Check out the wolf tags, they're really cheap for non-residents as well as residents since they didn't want them, got rid of them, had tree huggers reintroduce them, and now they're killing them off again.

Have you found anything?

Done a wilderness hunt on the border of Yellowstone, close to Gardiner in the Beartooth area. Beautiful country, hard riding (if you're not a horseman) and Fantastic outfitter. we took 3 phenomenal 6x7 bulls on the one year. Lots of grizzly though....

My son carries spray and a 454 Casul in a chest holster which does not come off when field dressing and quartering. Plus he has my 450 Marlin as a truck gun.
