SuperTag Offers Chances For Hunt Of A Lifetime
Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks recently approved a new hunting-license
lottery for hunters seeking a $5 chance to draw a license for some of the
states most popular big game species.
Under the new rules, resident and nonresident hunters can purchase an
unlimited number of $5 chances to draw any one of the new "SuperTags" for
moose, bighorn sheep, mountain goat, elk and deer. Hunters who win a
SuperTag will receive a license good statewide for that species during the
regular hunting season.
The lottery for the five "SuperTags" was authorized by the 2005 Montana
Legislature after the Private Lands Public Wildlife Council recommended it
as a way to help fund the state’s hunting access enhancement program and
wildlife law enforcement.
Hunters only need a conservation license to purchase SuperTag chances. All
chances on the deer, elk, moose, mountain sheep and mountain goat licenses
will be sold by FWP license providers and via the Internet beginning March
15.
