It ' s a nice time to get out and hunt . 



I feel the season is long enough and I appreciate that it begins 

 before rifle season. 



Good season to be out in the hunting field. 



Early season. 



Because if like me and you are unsuccessful during archery 

 season, you can hunt with a rifle later. 



It's uncrowded and I like to bugle. 



Good recreation, six weekends to spend in the mountains, quality 

 time. 



It's fair and safe; when rifle hunting season is open bowhunting 

 is dangerous . 



It is right in the prime of bugling season. 



Because there aren't a lot of bow hunters in the area I hunt. 



It provides the ultimate hunting challenge. 



You can always find game if you are willing to get off you behind 

 and hunt. 



Allows me to get out and hunt without running into masses of 

 rifle hunters. It's timed right, keeping rifle hunters out. 



I am a second year archer and it seems to be good. 



There are large numbers of trophy bulls and not much pressure. 



Yes, except I don't like the grouse hunters starting the same 

 week. 



I've had a lot of success with deer hunting in the past few 

 years . 



Because of the hunting opportunity it provides and good elk 

 populations to hunt. 



The hunting season is long enough and there is plenty of public 



land to hunt. 



More animals, more land to hunt on. 



Quite a few places to hunt. 



I like the long season on river bottoms (260) and early elk 



34
