Because you can still hunt either sex and either species in the 

 areas you choose to hunt in, before general season. 



Lengthy season and time of year. 



I like archery hunting and I also like rifle hunting. 



You have a choice to where you want to hunt. It's a great time 

 to be outdoors . 



Need more areas for bow only. 



Yes, except I would like to see late season hunts. 



Season is long enough and game is plentiful. 



We have good big game numbers in elk herds and good bull/cow 

 ratio. 



An opportunity to hunt elk during the bugle season. 



I enjoy getting out at that time of year. 



Good time of year. 



It's great. 



Set up gives archers the chance to hunt before game becomes wild 

 or spooky. 



Many places to go. 



It's open for either sex. 



Plenty of animals. 



More challenging than rifle hunting; less hunters! 



I came from Idaho two years ago. Hunting there was more 

 restrictive; shorter seasons. 



There are plenty of animals of each species around the area I 

 hunt. 



There is not a lot of bow hunters yet. 



I feel the season is well balanced and gives a person time to 

 hunt in any part of the state. 



The season is long enough but there could be more special hunts 

 at the end of the season.
