I was just reading today that they don't think they really have a huntable whitetail population out there this year. Last winter was a harsh one and EHD ( bluetongue) has been killing deer left and right for the past couple years now.
Here is another blurb I found of the situation out there. Trying to find the other I read earlier this morning again lol.

The one I read this morning said something like a 80-90% die off. That's a ton of deer right there. The milk river has been a goto mecca for deer hunting for years.
