time to hunt. 



The season is a good length at the best time of year. 



It works . 



It gives hunters a chance to get out before the rifle hunters, 

 and bugle elk etc . 



Yes, except would like to see a late archery season. 



The season is pretty long and you can hunt what you want to 

 pretty much and in different areas! 



It works and they don't get that much game. I've got one bull 

 in five years of hunting. 



I enjoy the challenge and the chance to get out and hunt a lotof 

 areas during a good season of the year. 



Seems to be good herd size with plenty of mature bulls where I 

 hunt. Doesn't appear to be much pressure either. 



Pressure is generally lighter and the season long enough to 

 enjoy. 



There is plenty of game and land to hunt without the pressures of 

 rifle season. 



I get to talk to the Lord in nice weather on the mountain. 



The hunting in Montana is some of the best in the U.S. as far as 

 open seasons go. 



Because it is that time of year when the elk temporarily drop 

 their guard. 



I see no problems with the current system. I think it gives the 

 animals more of a chance to survive hunting. 



I think the dates are very appropriate and it extends ones 

 hunting opportunities. 



The length of the season and the type of game to hunt is 

 adequate. 



It presents a hunter to spend more time in the woods. 



Proper timing. 



It's not the archery hunting that needs to be revised but the 

 rifle hunting for either sex animals.
