No, it's not that way statewide. You gotta be willing to go where the tags are. Some areas are overpopulated, but others are hurting. It's a big state. I am surprised to find that Idaho is the way it is though. There are some parts of MT that are feeling the burn from wolves, too, but it's not as bad as you describe yet....yet.

We don't have a set muzzel loader season here, but I wish we did. I'm going to try my hand at pheasants with a flintlock on Saturday. I'll be using a Brown Bess replica stoked with #4 shot. Also, a .70 Ste. Etienn smoothbore pistol, similarly loaded.
