I think this is a excellent pamplet. For your survey and some 

 excellent questions. 



Thank you for your interest in bowhunting. 



Thanks for asking my opinion. 



I think is a good thing to do so people can make it a better 

 place to hunt, and you'll know how everyone feels. 



Very good survey questions . 



Glad to see your trying to gather information. Hope you can 

 analize the info and draw specific correct conclusions from the 

 survey! 



This survey seems to be full of questions that are destined to 

 receive negative answers form most bowhunters . I, therefore, 

 question why such a survey is being done and how may of these 

 ideas I will see implemented anyhow. If I see soem of these 

 implemented (such as shorter seasons, or no rifle & bowhunting) 

 then why bother with the survey only to ignor the results . 



I appreciate the department taking the time to consider my 

 opinion. I hope the information I have submitted is helpful in 

 the research of big-game in Montana. 



To much money being spent year after year on studies . with no 

 improvements. Put more money on Elk transplants instead of gates. 



Thanks for your concern on Bow hunting- to us it is a season to 

 look forward to- to help elk populations it would be nice to 

 limit post & pole sales-at least in area 321-1 think they eat elk 

 all summer-anytime they want to.- 



on question 8b. does this mean that if you choose Elk with the 

 Bow that you can still hunt Deer Bear antelope ect with the 

 rifle? If this is so I would be in favor. 



Form to long 



I feel it is inportant to do survey to improve hunting 



Thank you for being concerned! 



I am glad to see that people are sending out these question ers 

 to find out how the archery season is doing. 



Thank you for sending me this survey so I can express my opinion 

 and concerns , 



I am very pleased with the chance to fill out this survey and
