Every year, hunters ask me how to hunt deer and elk without having to wait 15 or more years to draw a tag. My answer is Montana. Montana gives you options to put an elk tag, deer tag, or both in your pocket. The application system is fairly confusing, but WTA TAGS is here to guide you through the process. The deadline in Montana is April 1, so contact us to get started today.
