Montana AFI is Hosting an Introduction to the Montana Draw System Workshop at Malmstrom Air Force Base!

Why You Should Want to Attend:

The Armed Forces Initiative of Backcountry Hunters & Anglers  helps connect the military community with the knowledge and experiences needed to become lifelong conservationists and successful hunters on public lands. Join Montana AFI for a practical, easy-to-follow Introduction to the Montana Draw System Workshop designed specifically to help service members and veterans understand how to apply for big game permits in Montana — with special attention given to military residency rules and opportunities.

If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by preference points, bonus points, deadlines, or residency requirements, this short lunchtime workshop will break it all down in a clear, approachable way so you can confidently start planning your Montana hunting adventures.

What It Is:

This Lunch & Learn-style workshop features a concise PowerPoint presentation walking participants through Montana’s big game draw process, step by step.

Attendees can expect to:

  • Learn how Montana’s big game draw system works

  • Understand application timelines and important deadlines

  • Explore military residency considerations and benefits

  • Get tips on improving draw odds and planning future hunts

  • Ask questions and get clarity from experienced AFI volunteers

This is a perfect resource for beginners as well as those looking to sharpen their application strategy.
