USDA3 Posted June 5, 2015 Share Posted June 5, 2015 Does anyone know the regulations for Crossbows in MT? We are thinking about a trip to MT for Elk and was wondering about the use of crossbows during archery season for someone with a disability.Thanks!

Crossbows are not considered legal for use during the archery season and I am almost positive that Montana does not make exceptions for hunters with disabilities to use crossbows. A call to FWP would be wise to confirm this, but I am almost certain this is the case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USDA3 Posted June 19, 2015 Author Share Posted June 19, 2015 PFunk, Thanks. I have been all over the FWP page and find the permit system and lottery quite confusing for a non resident. Have you bow hunted Elk out there before?USDA3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PFUNK Posted July 3, 2015 Share Posted July 3, 2015 Sorry it took me awhile to check back here... yes I have bow hunted Montana for elk for several years now. I went to college there for 4 years, and hunted elk for 3 of those years. Spent most time around Missoula where I lived, but have also hunted near Great Falls.

Archerysniper Posted September 27, 2015 Share Posted September 27, 2015 Crossbows are not a legal archery method in Montana during the archery season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ufatz Posted March 19, 2016 Share Posted March 19, 2016 Good for Montana. Wide open as they may be they have been pretty adamant that crossbows have no place in sport hunting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
