Montana Nonresident Combination Tags Explained 

Not in MT

If you don't draw for this current year, you will receive your refund via the credit card you used to apply.

Yes, but you do not get a 100% refund. I think it's 80% if I remember correctly.

I hear ya, I'm not far behind. Hunted in Montana 22 of past 23 years. As soon as my partner draws a coveted bull permit we are done too. Until we move there and enjoy resident prices. To each their own. Best regards to all.

i agree with you i’m done with them i’m sure the residents love hearing it but the local mom and pop buisness will not be so happy if more and more hunters feel like you and i.

@CraigFerrieri As long as wealthy non residents are willing to get bent over I mean pay a lot of money (nearing $1,400) for big game combo plus fees and bonus points, I doubt mom n pops will feel it at all. I've always heard that hunting is going towards a rich person's activity. Now I know what that means. Sad but true. Interesting to me is that it seems the higher the prices, the more non residents apply. It used to be easy to draw an A tag, not so easy anymore. I think the residents won't be too thrilled if many passionate hunters/fishers move to Montana or at least have a residence there and live there long enough each year to be considered a resident. That's when I think locals will be a bit unhappy, in general.

Agree to agree, Rob @@rob4263

Whoa there turbo. You woke up and chose violence

Move where? I like to hunt Colorado Montana Wyoming New Mexico Utah and Idaho

Folks from Montana act like every state doesn’t experience out of state tag holders. Some of the worst experiences I’ve had with other “sportsman” have been in that state. The only flaw in their attitude is that they think we care about their opinions towards those of us from out of state.
