[QUOTE="LeftyWilbury, post: 889076, member: 72893"] The clearest info I'm finding for the draw reports of 2012 are on page 31 and 32 of the 2013 Deer, Elk, Antelope regs. You can download that pdf from [url=http://fwp.mt.gov/hunting/regulations/]Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks :: 2013 Hunting Regulations[/url]Their "reports" for deer drawing statistics that you can download are indeed incomprehensible and not helped by the fact it's in pdf form. You might also want to check out the [URL="http://fwp.mt.gov/hunting/planahunt/harvestReports.html"]harvest reporting page[/URL]. You can download a csv file and open it in excel and crunch some numbers to find out the success rates in a hunting district (if you've never used excel, that might not be that much fun...). Unfortunately it's won't tell you whether it's a mulie or whitetail harvested, although if you are planning on hunting a district that only allows mulies to be harvested, or the WT population is low, you could assume mulies are being harvested. Also never hurts to give FWP a call in the region you want to hunt and ask to speak to their wildlife biologist. I'm sure they'd be happy to discuss the region.
