Montana Pheasant Hunting
Last year, hunters harvest 151,000 pheasants in Montana, totaling 23 percent above the 20-year average. The northern, far eastern, and southern counties in Montana are looking comparable, favorable or improved from last year.
The remainder of the state's pheasant areas will be mixed due to considerable rains and cool weather that tracked over the core and western parts of the state during the first three weeks of June, culminating in cold rains and snow in the higher elevations in early June. These areas will likely have lower production and late broods.
