please specify in large letters "dated material". I didn't even 

 read the first page untill to late. P.S. I feel crossbows would 

 be an unfair advantage as well as having black powder season 

 durring the Elk rut season. 



Please don't allow black powder or any other type fire arm to be 

 used during bow hunting season for big game. 



I regards to making it legal to hunt with a cross bows during bow 

 season; would do nothing but bring many people who really don't 

 understand the reasons for bowhunting, into competition with true 

 bow hunters. This proposition should not even be considered! 



I don't think crossbows should be used during bow season because 

 it would be too easy to kill animal hunters should be able too 

 buy thier licenses when ever they want or need to. 



Do not appprove crossbows for any season - Propose opening goat, 

 sheep, & moose season early for archery hunters- 

 Please keep crossbows out of the Archery season. Please help 

 sportsmen to gain access to public lands surrounded by private 

 property. keep livestock off public property so that game 

 animals may live in their natural environment. Teach police 

 ethics & professional courtesy to your law enforcement officers 

 who represent you in the field. 



I feel that anyone who chooses the challenge of bowhunting should 

 not have to compete with the total slob who would use a crossbow 

 if you are going to do this you may as well forget the special 

 archery season. 



In reference to page 3 question 8 I don't think this is necessary 

 & I think if the time ever comes to do this a bowhunter should be 

 given a chance to draw a rifle permit before he be made to make 

 this decision. 



I hope the future stays like the past concerning crossbows. 

 Crossbows should not be allowed during Bow season. 



I feel physically handicapped only should be allowed to hunt with 

 crossbows. Restrictions would be placed on the type or what is 

 considered physically handicapped. 



Increasing the cost of licenses to $20 would lower the total 

 amount of money taken in by archers . There are not that many 

 "serious" archers to make up the difference. 



I want no restriction on archery hunting except all hunters must 

 use a 65 lb bow or better for sure kill with killer broadheads 

 Remember it is extremely difficult to kill further than 60 yards 

 with a bow/so the limitations of success has no effect on how 

 many are hunting & vise versa.
