Montana’s Archery Elk Hunting Season Dates
Early September through mid-October
One of the best times to Elk Hunt Montana is when bulls are “in rut,” or trying to find mates. Their numbers are usually more concentrated during this time which tends to fall toward the middle of Montana Hunting Season. In Montana’s spectacular Lee Metcalf Wilderness Area, you’ll find not only a large population of resident elk, but also Montana Elk who are migrating from nearby Yellowstone Park.
During archery season, we limit 5 hunters per week, and could accommodate a full group of 6. Each Elk Hunter must show proof of having completed an Archery Hunters’ Safety course or a previous bow hunting permit from his or her home state in order to obtain a Montana Archery permit. It is easy and convenient to apply for a Hunting License Online.
Rifle Hunting Elk
That perfect Hunting in Montana weather and the mixture of native herds and Yellowstone Park’s migratory population combine to create an unforgettable Wilderness Hunting experience during rifle hunting season. Ideally situated in a major migratory pattern for the Yellowstone Elk Herd, this area could not be better suited to rifle hunting for Montana Elk. During one of these guided Elk Hunting Trips, our Elk Hunting Guides will demonstrate effective Elk Hunting Strategies like stalking, spotting, glassing, and sitting meadows in heavily used areas. Remember to arrive prepared for your hunt. Read about Hunter’s Rifle Marksmanship and practice, practice, practice to increase your own chances at a successful harvest and show your advocacy for Ethical Hunting.
A maximum of 6 Elk Hunters per week during rifle season is our limit.
