I didn't see your post and made another. They just told me (9:53mt) that it was currently in the process and maybe results by this afternoon.

If you use this link, you can see the results a little earlier. The main page still shows me as pending, but using the link provides results. https://myfwp.mt.gov/fwpExtPortal/searchHunters_input.action
So far, I'm successful for the general tag, but the LE permit is still pending.

Successful for elk combo with 2 pp.
Now looking for advice from those that have had two bull tags in two different states. How did you manage your time mostly.

Scrappy sounds like a good problem to have!

Oh ya I forgot to add I'm not looking for your honey hole but just a good spot to get into a bunch of bulging bulls.

Scrappy you go hunting. I try to do it every year. One day I hope to kill three bulls in three states. Kinda my personal goal. I've got two tags in pocket now & have two draws left not to mention CO so you never know.

It won’t be a bow hunt, but our group of 9 NR’s went 100% on deer combo’s.
Going to be a good fall, AZ unit 1, 2B, 2C archery bull elk tag already in the pocket!!

No luck here. Looks like it may take 3 points to be sure with the outfitter handout.

Scrappy, you call Montana and let them know that you would like to pay for and donate your MT elk combo tag to Vonfoust since he was not lucky enough to draw.
From: Scrappy
14-Apr-22
Vonfoust I was in your shoes last year with Montana. It was a blow to not draw for sure.

Rumors are flying around that the LE draw was screwed up. So anyone who didn't get their LE permit hold on the dust hasn't settled yet. Sad to say it's typical Mt, seem every year they mess up something with the draw.
From: Inshart

Bigswivle; I'm guessing "Sh$;&/‘ffn " translates to you not drawing a tag in MT.

Ohio that would make zero sense but I wouldn’t doubt it lol
From: Scrappy

Ohio hunter, is your numbers from this drawing? I don't think 1 pp got any tags in the first round of drawings. Maybe on the released tags.
From: hoyt-6190

LKH - just an fyi 410 and 417 are no longer together on the archery permit. They are each separate permits.

Ohio I can't remember exactly but last year it was about the same with 0 and 1. Somewhere around 60-70%. Scoot is probably close although I believe he may be a hair high on his 0 point percentage.

Mt. is supposed to release a statement about how bad they screwed up the LE draw.
From: Pop-r
15-Apr-22
Omg! They just released it. What idiots! Over & over again!! They're truly incompetent.

Buddy and I drew Archery Elk Combo with 3 Preference Points. Hunting 30,000+ acres of private land with Alfalfa fields and great water in mid-Sept. CAN'T WAIT!!!

Well, 3 of us drew with 2pts and we’re going to hunt public land with 17,000 other non residents and 1,000,000 Montana residents. So, I mean, it’s pretty much just like Tex’s situation.

Drew my general elk tag. Same unit I hunted last year. I got into elk everyday, but wasn’t able to seal the deal. Going to make it happen this year!
From: TexasBuck

Hey fellas, Definitely not trying to rub it in... more just like a kid on Christmas morning who got what he wanted (see also: Ralphie and his Red Ryder BB Gun). I had my triple gut punch last year. Three states applied for and strike 1, strike 2, strike 3, I was out. Took it out on some hogs and a Texas 8 point.

Its been a few years since they had a screwup in the draw...

Is it true if I didn’t apply for the big game combo last year or this year my bonus points for elk will be purged?
From: Pop-r
19-Apr-22
Smtn10p, did you mean since they "HAVEN'T" had a screw up? They've jacked it up every year the last several!
From: nmwapiti
19-Apr-22
Not sure about bonus points. They zeroed out a buddies pref point after he forgot to apply this year.
From: T-rex

We're in - I hope they screw up like this again next year :)
From: TexasBuck

OK, now THIS might be considered rubbing it in.... just found out this morning that I also drew a late season Archery tag in a NM Gila unit. Going guided by a guy who grew up there and has killed some toads. Christmas morning came twice this week!!
From: Smtn10PT

Pop-r yea, thats what I meant! I just saw in Facebook memories that about 4 years ago it took them around 6-8 weeks to do the draw and then they had to re-do it entirely because they screwed that up.
