Welcome to Episode 032 of the Bowhunting Montana Podcast!  Can this legislative session be over? It seems that the legislators are saving the big hits for the second half of the session. HB 505 was recently introduced by house leader Wylie Galt. In short this bill gives away our prized elk herd to large landowners that can then turn around and sell those elk to anyone willing to cough up $10k. HB 505 doesn’t solve the “problem” it claims to address and is a smoke screen for greed and cutting the general public out of our wildlife heritage. HB 505 goes directly against the tenants of the North American Model of Wildlife Conservation and will set a precedent that cannot be undone.   #Bowhunting - #Conservation - #Conversation

Welcome to Episode 029 of the Bowhunting Montana Podcast!  This episode starts off with the introduction of a new co-host Mark Schwomeyer. Mark begrudgingly agreed to help us out and co-host when possible and we couldn’t be happier! Tim Roberts, the President of the TBM also joined us and the four of us discussed the upcoming (and now existing) crossbow bill in the 2021 Montana Legislative Session. We discuss the various aspects of the bill and address each of the problems with it. This episode should be fairly educational and covers a lot of the reasons why crossbows should not be allowed in Montana’s archery season. #bowhuntmt   #Bowhunting - #Conservation - #Conversation Guests Tim Roberts   Hosts Paul Kemper (@paul_kemper) Dane Rider (@dane.rider) Mark Schwomeyer (@mrschwomeyer)   Download / Subscribe iTunes | Google Play  | Spotify | Stitcher | Castbox | Tune-In | iHeartRadio   Contact email: bowhuntingmontanapodcast@gmail.com ig: @thebowhuntingmontanapodcast fb: The Bowhunting Montana Podcast twitter: @bowhuntmontana   Resources http://bowhuntingmontana.libsyn.com/ https://www.tradbowmt.org/ - Join TBM here https://tradbowmt.org/2021 https://mtba.org/bowhunting-with-disabilities-in-montana/   Credits "On Our Own"  Written by Matthew Lorenz, performed by The Suitcase Junket.
