Publisher’s Notes What’s I could not have squeezed another picture, article or advertisement in Hunting Outdoor Vets this issue. I still have several pictures that will have to go in the December issue and posted on Facebook. Speaking of which, the December issue...it will not be released until the 16th of December. Well the election is over, hunting season is in full swing, rut is happening and cat hunters are getting excited. Turkey day is right around the corner and Christmas is not far behind. We celebrate a very important day this month...Veterans Day. Remember our veterans this month...not just on the 11th. They are the reason we have the freedoms we do. Trapping is under way and local trappers are feeling much better now the trapping ban initiative challenge is over. Bobcat season open 1 Dec so trappers and hounds men will be after them hot and heavy. There is still plenty of time to fill any left over tags. The weather has been so mild bears and bear sign is still being seen. I am still getting reports of some elk bugling. Happy Thanksgiving! Don’t forget to thank our advertisers...without them there would be no Montana Woods N Water. ~Raf Viniard ~ Publisher Guest Writers This Month: Mike Maxwell, page 2, Hunting Michael Cirian, page 10, Shooting Shelly Cordis, page 31, What Was That?
