Like I always say, go where the birds are and worry about everything else later.

Yeah no kiddin. birds are pretty scarce down here. From northern michigan and going into bird withdrawls. Heard montana is the place to be.

I miss Clemson all the time and Im only 45 mins down the road in Greenville. Definitely wish there were more birds around here. Wouldn't mind selling the wife on the idea of moving to Montana though.

most guys wouldn'd mind selling their wife

Go to Montana I would before you get established somewhere where the bird hunting is drying up like the southeast.

In another 10-15 years there will be zero free access and twice as many people here, its already miserable in Ga.

I'm not trying to convince you NOT to move to Montana...just do it after you have spent your time at Clemson! Once you move out west you're sure going to miss the 2 best things about Clemson...

1) Tailgating (GO TIGERS!)
2) Beautiful women in sundresses (Spring is on its way!) From what a friend out in WY tells me #2 is scarce out there

mtlee,

sundresses, hot coeds.... got me thinking about my days at the University of Alabama...

I miss those days, road trips to games..... umm...the girls at Ole Miss and UGA...

wow, oh yah I am sure they have birds in montana!

Roll Tide!

I lived almost 8 years in Montana and you will think you've died and gone to heaven!

Huns
Pheasants
Sharptails
Blue Grouse
Ruffed Grouse
And if you want to travel east - Sage Grouse

Plenty of public land with Block Management, BLM, Forest Service and State Lands.

You will definitely have more places to hunt than you will have time to hunt.

If I were a young man - I'd do just what you're doing!

You can always go back to SC to get a Wife!

you guys saying there are no ski bunnies to hunt around bozeman? very true about the sun dresses as well.

Happy you're not headed to the bread basket ... we have as much hunting pressure as I'd like to see ... go west young man ... go west ....

Has anyone hunted the Scobey and Plentywood areas and if so which would you recommend staging out of? I am interested in early season Sharptail and Huns for the dog work. Thanks for any input.
