Yes, except for the access of public lands. 



It gives a fair chance to hunt all the big game. 



Time of year. 



Season is long and separate from rifle. Areas open to archery 

 are sufficient. 



There are a lot less bow hunters than rifle hunters in my area. 



Season framework provides good recreation opportunities . 



The long period of time is excellent. 



In the immediate area I hunt (632), permits - not to be any less. 



It runs long enough where if you are going to get your game you 

 will get it in the provided time. 



It seems to me that Fish and Game has the quotas figured pretty 

 close on permits in the area I hunt. 



Because it's near my home - within fifty miles. 



Because I got plenty of shots, I just couldn't hit anything. 



Probably because I go mainly to see things and enjoy the 

 outdoors, and so far I have been able to get away from other 

 people bow hunting so that I can enjoy myself. 



A lot of game. 



Challenging. 



Because of length of season - either sex elk. 



No reason. 



Long season. 



Allows more days in field and few people hunt compared to rifle 

 season. 



It seems to provide ample opportunity to get an elk. 



Gives me time to do all the hunting I want to do. 



I have seen lots of game and had some shots . 



So far the regions I hunt are not overrrun with hunters .
