-My favorite place to hunt is around Lincoln but there are very 

 few bulls-why couldn't we have more areas like the Highwoods 

 which is permit only for elk during rifle season. There are a 

 lot of bulls in the Highwoods during archery season ( 

 unfortunately there are getting to be too many people there too.) 

 -Even though I hunt with a longbow I really don't believe the 

 type of archery takcle is an issue at all. The type of bow is 

 personal preference only. 



-I think we are all thankful for the long, generous archery 

 season. 



I own Big Sky Army Navy and sell and service bows. I thank you 

 for this survey and hope my children will be able to enjoy this 

 sport, both bow and gun. 



There is a distinct difference between the bow hunters and gun 

 hunters who go out with a bow. Several questions in this book 

 are only for the latter group, confusing information and issues 

 (Not to mention data!) I suggest seeking help from the M.B.A.- 

 ( Montana Bowhunters Association) for clarity on a bowhunters 

 questionaire. 



Very interesting survey. Hope to be more help next year. 



I am glad to see that you doing a survey like this. Some thing 

 willhave to be done soon or archery hunting will get worse 

 instead of improving I can see how much things have change in the 

 last 5 years. Thay arnt getting any better. 



Some of the questions are very personl ! 



I believe that surveys like this are a good idea so that the fish 

 and game can have a better idea of what going on with hunters 

 opinion. 



I hope this survey is used to help educate the general public on 

 bowhunting. 



I believe doing surveys like this could really help with game 

 management, and also the hunters. I believe you should do more 

 things like this in the future. 



I think this survey had some good question and had some bad 

 question to. PS. Thank you for sending me this, panflip. 



Some questions did not pertain to my hunting situation. As this 

 is the first year in May that I have archery hunted. 



Many laoded questions. Bad survey and should be discarded. All 

 information is biased. 



I was shocked to see this in the mail, but I like it very much.
