This hunting district is located in south-central Montana, to the east of Billings and north of Hardin. The northern boundary is marked by the Yellowstone River, while the southern boundary is adjacent to the Crow Indian Reservation. Antelope are primarily found on private land in this area, making access challenging and often requiring time to obtain permission. Although antelope numbers have declined from historical levels, they are currently stable and on the rise. The buck-to-doe ratio is respectable, and the general tag allows for hunting either sex of antelope.
