I'm real glad that you sent me this because I feel we should hear 

 what the hunters say rather than what other people say. 



This is great. I hope it helps. 



This survey is so bias it stinks ! Why is it the Department has 

 already determined there is a problem with archery hunting. Now 

 they are telling the sportsman what they are going to do to 

 correct that problem. I'm saying we do not have a problem. 

 Leave the seasons as they are with the exception of region 6 elk 

 permits in 621, 622, and 632. Change these back to the way 

 region 4 and 7 manage the herd and we have solved the problem not 

 created one. I wonder if some people in the Department ever 

 stop and think who is paying their wages. I think its time they 

 start listening to the sportsmen. 



Sorry I'm so late returning this. I got busy working and put it 

 in the back of my desk, and completely forgot about it. Thank 

 you very much for sending me a quest ionaire and next time it will 

 be returned immediately. 



Hopefully this survey and others like it will help the Game Dept. 

 and show the sportsman some positive action and results. 



Many of these questions require a qualifying comment, so the 

 answers given are not necessarily as accurate as they could be. 



Good Questions Hope its a successful survey 



This is a great questionaire that is very much needed! Great 

 job. I hope the info can be put to use. 



Again many of the opinion questions are geared toward limiting 

 archery opportunities - that is terrible you should be working 

 toward limiting rifle hunters their opportunities not the 

 archers. The restricting regulations are not in the best 

 interest of the hunters. Your projections /proposals are 

 completely off base (management actions) 



Thanks for a chance to express opinions . 



I glad you finnally came out with a survey to see how we feel. 



On the elk survey questions 8-10 should also be asked of rifle 



hunters 



on the archery survey question #2 should also included (see 



other) which is the reason many hunters use the bow. I feel this 



survey (same basic questions) should be given to rifle hunters or 



you have nothing to compare with. Done by phone sampling or 



mail .
