LETS KEEP THE SEASONS THE WAY THEY ARE. 



I believe Mont. F&G has done a fine job w/ the archery season. I 

 can't see changing anything I feel that by shortening the season 

 or allowing only bow or rifle hunting would be of no value to the 

 system. 



I really enjoy this sport & don;t want it changed 



I have lived in Montana all my life and bowhunted for 12 years. 



Montana has an excellent archery season, well managed and 



controlled, I see little reason to make any changes except to 

 possibly even lengthen the season. 



Don't take away our archery season. 



if I want to go to war. I'll prejoin the Air Force. Too many gun 



hunters ! 



I feel you should leave things the way they are 

 (Thank you very much) 



I think archery hunting & seasons should remain as are in 

 Montana. We are not over harvesting elk or game in MT. I am 

 opposed to either or seasons, but could live with them if we had 

 a choice as per species to hunt with gun or bow. If we go to 

 either or seasons the success rate will go up. Then the season 

 will be shortened, then I will hunt every day along with alot of 

 other bowhunters, thus we get into an over pressure situation. 

 Please leave as is, also I would like to see the permit system on 

 the North side of the Misour River areas 621,623,622,630 etc 

 discontinued. 



Being a President of a large archery club located in Region 4, we 

 are all perfectly satisfied with archery hunting in Montana, the 

 way it is . Let ' s not take hunting oppurtunity away from are up 

 coming generation of bow hunters by limiting how many can hunt. 



I am very satsified with bow hunting just the way it is, I enjoy 

 it, and being out doors that time of year. I enjoy just watching 

 the habbits and movement of big game animals killing these 

 animals is not everything about hunting. 



I feel that the archery season is set up and run very well. I 

 would like to see the bear season in the 300 districts open up to 

 firearms at the same time as archery season opens though. You 

 have a good archery season going don't screw it up. Thankyou 



I am generally happy with the archery regulations in Montana and 

 have had a very enjoyable 1st year. I am looking forward to next 

 year very much. 



I feel the archery season is very good just the way it is. One of
