Works out well for my lifestyle and where I like to hunt. 



As a hunter it gives me two seasons to hunt big game. 



I have permission to hunt a lot of private land and usually see a 

 lot of game. 



Because I feel game populations are high but so because too many 

 amateur are careless and nonprof icient bow hunters. 



It is set up good and it is at the right time and length. 



Five week season; enough game to make it interesting; either sex; 

 great time of year; bows only. 



I have only been archery hunting this year but I didn't have any 

 problems . 



It is the right way. 



Elk bugling. 



Because it falls during the elk rut. 



Because it ' s a long hunting season. 



I like the archery only areas to harvest animals where guns can't 

 safely be used. 



A lot of access on national forest land. 



Hardly anybody is out where I hunt. 



Yes, except still needs to be open after rifle season. 



Long season, best time of the year. 



Because I have only lived in Montana for three years. I came 

 from Penna, and it is much better here. I haven't been in 

 Montana long enough to see trends . 



It allows me to hunt the way I want from September through 

 November . 



Yes, except that spike bulls should be allowed in the Gallatin 

 Canyon. 



Outstanding opportunity. 



Yes, except for orange requirement during gun season. 



Because it's a great place to hunt.
