before rifle season. 



Not as many hunters as in the rifle season - too many hunters and 

 guides these days . 



Season goes through elk bugling and not many hunters. 



Because there is a lot of hunting areas, and you don't have to go 

 very far. 



Because the licenses are cheap enough to afford and it's fun, 

 even if you don't get anything. 



There is hardly any people who bow hunt. 



It offers a lot of recreation to a large number of archers. 



Yes, except I wish there were more trophy size game. 



The season is separate from rifle allowing quiet hunting. 



Seasons about the right length, good amount of game animals. 



Gives me ample time to hunt. 



Yes, except would like to see more locked gates, need less 

 vehicle pressure. 



Get to get out during a nice time of year and see lots of 

 animals. 



Yes, except I would like to see a deer tag come with the stamp. 



Length of season and permit opportuniy seems to be good. Also in 

 our area the elk seem to be on the increase. 



Most things are adequate as far as rules, regulations, etc. 



There are many places but few hunters and lots of game! 



See lots of game, not a lot of hunters. 



Good hunting opportunities, good deer populations. 



Because the elk are in the rut and the deer antlers are rubbed 

 off. 



Nice time of year to be out in the woods . 



Because the season is about the right length of time. 



I don't think we should have to draw for elk permits with a bow.
