Does MT have a "3 CONSECUTIVE day non- resident license" or something similar to other States?

^ I don't think so SJA. Not all up on non resident laws. It's all about money , money and money. Instead of bring families and friend form out of state it is tearing hunting way from the hunt. I think others state should counter with equal in price for Montana hunters wanting too hunt out of state. This is a terrible journey to go down and will keep people from getting into hunting and will be only for the rich.

I know MD has the reciprocity license, eg. whatever the other State would charge a MD non - resident to hunt, that's what MD would charge them. Also there is the "3 CONSECUTIVE day non- resident license" which, if hunting WF, they have to still purchase a MD "duck Stamp" also. The 3 day is only good for those 3 CONSECUTIVE days eg. If you purchase it on a Saturday, it's only good on that day and the following Monday. They don't have Sunday hunting with the exception of some designated only Deer areas.

The more hunting becomes an activity only for an elite few, the easier it is to implement gun control. Hunting is still the #1 reason people own firearms. fewer people hunting means fewer people who own guns.
Owning a gun whose primary purpose is self defense, like a handgun, is already regulated heavily in many states and accepted by the people who live there.
State wildlife agencies are promoting elitist hunting. Just look at the price of big game tags.
Look at what is on tv. Those "hunting" shows are nothing more than advertising. Those TV shows have turned hunting into a competition. The biggest deniers that they are competition hunters are the most avid competition hunters. Its not about controlling populations, gathering food, the challenge, or being outdoors, its all about one upping people they don't even know.

Montana will soon be the next Colorado. Montana has been going down the path of high prices over regulations for years. More money and less people hunting and less work involved with more regulations is what they are after.

Yep what wyfur said, alot of good public land is if it's land locked by private. Got money you can get to it by helicopter. I know one piece of public land that is locked up by ten feet of private land in front of thousands of Acer's of public land, all they had to do was shift the new bridge a lil' to the south. Crazy
Let me sugar coat this

It all comes down to greed of the outfitters. I have seen the same thing in other states. I saw guides push for lower limits on Merns quail in AZ. Not because of the population, but so they could have half day hunts and hunters limit out faster. The limit was five and they wanted it dropped to three. AK has requirements that nonresidents have to have a guide to hunt certain animals. They claim it is for your safety, but I am sure it was pushed by the outfitters. They have the, if you had to hunt with me, and had no other options, I could get rich mentality. You have the same thing with ADC trappers pushing to limit license. That mentality will be the death of it all. I saw this coming 30+ years ago.

Nothing new really, lots of states have one form of Outfitter welfare or another. Alaska, Wyoming and New Mexico for sure. I agree, very frustrating where things are headed. Unfortunately in the future we will be calling the hunting now the good ole days.

This will effect trapping as well and other outdoor activity as well, just not hunting.

Actually the Alaska requirement is that non-residents have to be supervised hunting Sheep, Goats, and Brown bears. It can be by a licensed guide, or a Alaska resident family member. If Alaska did not have this law, un- supervised non-residents would cause more problems than they already do. They cause plenty already. Remove the law and Sheep and Brown Bear will go to a draw, that won't help Non-residents.

As the number of hunter decline, WHO is going to pay for all the wildlife program, and CO's.
