Don't take those Landowner Sponsored tags for granted anymore. I am a landowner in eastern MT and I just got my LS tag info from the Fish and Game. To sponsor a nonresident hunter this year, the landowner is required to permit public hunting at no charge. I will be surprised if many landowners will allow this. Now don't get me wrong, I do allow a few local hunters on at no charge but to allow unrestricted public hunting--no way. There is Block Management, State and Federal lands for that. This is just another way that the Fish and Game is driving a wedge between the hunting public and the landowners. Just my thoughts...
