MBA Mission
Established in 1973, the Montana Bowhunter's Association was established as a nonprofit organization by and for Montana's bowhunters. It's sole purpose remains the same today as it was then: To unite the state's bowhunting sportsmen to work towards a common goal of preserving and promoting the sport of bowhunting in Montana.
In addition to preserving and promoting bowhunting, some of the MBA's major goals are:
- promoting ethical bowhunting through education;
- improving landowner - bowhunter relationships; and
- providing a voice in management of Montana's big game and an opportunity to assist in the preservation of wildlife habitat.
