hunting early. I have no problems with the seasons. 



Long season, many opportunities. 



I extends the amount of hunting time I can have. 



I like getting out in to the woods. 



Plenty of game and not too many hunters. 



I like the sport, and there is a good number of game in the area. 



Because in early hunting they haven't been spooked by gunfire. 



It ' s pretty good with a few drawbacks . 



Because when in Colorado, I had to choose between rifle and bow. 

 It's great to be able to do both. 



It is set up nicely. 



It's a good time of the year for me to hunt (before school). 



I feel there is no significant impact on any game requiring no 

 changes . 



Mostly exercise sport. 



It's tough but possible to see and get your game. 



I am just starting to bow hunt. I like doing this sport. 



I enjoy it the way it is. No changes are needed. 



Not a lot of hunters to compete with. 



The spots I hunt are uncrowded. 



I have bow hunted elk ten year in 311 and 301 and find more elk 

 and more big bulls today than I did then, although they are 

 harder to approach. 



Yes, except I believe archery season in district 260 along the 

 river bottom could stand to be longer because the population is 

 reaching drastic proportions. 



Because it gives me a long season and more time to hunt. 

 Seasons are appropriate for rut for both deer and elk. 



Because you see game. 



Because you can shoot either sex and it's a lot of competition.
