In regards to question 8C about hunting in oen district you 

 wouldn't have an equal amount of hunters in some districts. 



I happy to see this survey and hope you get good response from 

 it, because I think only the serious bowhunter will resoned. 



I am very willing to help out in any way I can to improve or 

 maintain archery hunting in MT. I've enjoyed the quesitonaire and 

 await the results to be published. 



*A section should have been provided for name and address for the 

 incentive drawing. 



*This quesiton is ridiculous in the fact that it has absolutely 

 no game management value. You can't possibly determine the 

 number of mortally wounded, sueprf icially wounded or grazed. If 

 no value judgements to that effect can't be attached to the 

 question, the only possible use of this statistic would be as a 

 club against archery hunting. In that regard I wouldn't answer 

 this question regardless of the no. of animals I may or may not 

 wound . 



I filled out this survey after having second thoughts. Several 

 of the questions were poorly worded and could be used adversely 

 by those opposing archery hunting. Before taking management 

 action I would like to see a similiar survey done with rifle 

 hunters. Trophy size animals have dwindled in areas I've hunted 

 although numbers have increased. 



This survey only measures opinion not fact I It use should be 

 used only to express hunter opinion. It does not express true 

 facts to game or game management . 



Surveys are a way to become aware of thing going on in your 

 state. 



I think the survey is against bow hutners in gneeral a slob bow 

 hunter is a slob rifle hunter. 



I am more than happy to assist in this survey. However I feel 

 that bowhunters should not be the only "group" to be surveyed. I 

 believe all hunters should be surveyed. 



Thanks for doing the study. These are important questions you've 

 brought to the surface. 



My concerns are about this survey. I don't understand why you 

 are doing it. I have neverin my life had such a survey because I 

 rifle hunt. I think you are picking archery hunters unfairly. 



This is a super good Pamphlet. Good job.
