Because I get to spot big game and find where they all are. 



Yes, except make a choice between bow or rifle hunting. 



Seasons are right length and time. 



I believe the time factor for bugling elk for archers is about 



right. I don't have very many complaints about the archery 



season. 



It's long enough to get some weekends in because I don't have 

 enough time after work. 



You get your chance at the does and small bucks, but the big one 

 you want is too smart. 



It gives me an opportunity to see and obseirve wildlife before the 

 rifle season. 



Because there is bugling season and a longer season in the river 

 bottom. 



Timing, but would like a little longer season. 



There are fewer hunters than in gun season. But it is starting 

 to be a problem tool 



Because it gives people the chance to a challenge, and also gives 

 game a chance. 



It's a new way of hunting and a more challenging opportunity. 



As a former New Yorker, I'm especially pleased with all the 

 public land to hunt on. 



It is long enough to study game and locate them. Lets you hunt 

 during the rut. Gives the game a break before rifle season. 



It's the right time of year for bugling. There's generally good 

 weather. You see a lot of wildlife at that time of year. 



Large numbers of game and low numbers of hunters. 



Nothing to compare it with, first year hunting. 



It allows the most man hours in the field with the least amount 



of impact on the game. 



I have seen an abundance of game and no other hunters. 



I see more game during archery season than regular season. 



Seems to be an efficient system coordinated with gun season for 

 animal population control.
