The Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks Commission agreed in May to change the 2007 Antelope Season opening date to Oct. 7.   The opening date is listed as Oct. 14 in the 2007 antelope hunting regulations. The Nov. 11 closing date was not changed.

The change was made in response to requests to maintain the Columbus Day holiday weekend opener tradition. With the change, the archery only antelope season will overlap the general antelope season for a week—Oct. 7-13.   Because there is a concurrent general rifle season, antelope archery hunters will be required to wear hunter orange during the one-week overlap.

No change was proposed to the pheasant opener, which is set to open on Oct. 13.
