Summary
In this episode, Matt Hartsky breaks down how to prepare after drawing a Montana elk tag and how to build a real elk hunting plan before the season starts. Instead of showing up with a loose idea and reacting when pressure, access, weather, terrain, and elk movement change, Matt explains how to approach Montana elk hunting with structure, clarity, and confidence. This episode covers public land elk hunting preparation, archery elk hunting, rifle elk hunting, access strategy, pressure planning, terrain-specific decision-making, backup hunt zones, elk movement, and the physical and mental preparation needed to stay effective when conditions shift. If you drew a Montana elk tag and want to hunt smarter instead of guessing your way through the season, this episode will help you show up ready.
