EAST TEXAS HOG DOGGERS FORUM

I got a wild hair here recently and packed my bags. I'm now living outside of Choteau, Montana for the summer taking care of 2,500 head of yearling steers on federal leases. You would be amazed at the wildlife in this area. I've been here a week and have seen elk, mule deer, black bear, grizzlies, mountain goats, lions, bobcats, and moose. Got a hook up with a local guy to go run hounds on bobcat next weekend. The ranch I'm working for is owned by David Letterman. A whole lot of butt kissing but they leave me alone. I stay in the mountains 6 days a week. It's 55 and gorgeous here today.

Turn a bunch of hogs loose and you'll have it made. Just kidding.  Sounds like a nice spot for sure. Congratulations to ya sir !

I admire you for just doing it. Sounds amazing, enjoy your time.

Almost sounds like heaven on earth...

I agree with the above comment. Sounds like you are in heaven! Mountains and working stock. I spent a month in Alaska and loved it! I couldn't imagine Montana in person! All the pics look great on the Internet.

When Dave was on his way to retirement Rolling Stone wrote up a nice long article about him that I read. In it they discussed his Montana ranch quite a bit. Turns out despite being a talk show host for so many years Dave was actually more of an introvert than an extrovert. He liked to get a way to Montana to find solitude and rejuvenate himself.

I think it's becoming fairly common for celebrities to buy mega ranches up in Montana.

Be safe out there, it been awhile since I seen you last. Take care

Those grizzly bears give me the creeps, Montana is a beautiful state

Man wgat i wouldnt give to do that! Livin the dream man, livin the dream!

Man that's freaking awesome! Like Justin said, what I wouldn't give! Me, a couple dogs, and a easy riding stick, sound like the life bud. Be safe and have a time!

Man that sure sounds fun. Wish i could load ol sorrely up and a few dogs and get a gig like that! I gota few that would cow but i bet these pig hounds would like a bear.

Been a long time Art. We turned them dogs loose and man oh man they are long winded. My butt was tired as heck. Beautiful place though. See grizzlies all the time but a dang young bull moose gave me some heck. They're the ones you have to watch out for. Montana has some very nice people, but I'm very proud to be Texas raised. Give em hell guys.

Post some pictures I would love to see what it looks like up there
