We now have a good archery season, and I hope it stays this way! 



I feel that the timing is perfect. 



Because of the amount of game to be had and the simplicity of 

 obtaining a license. 



The length of bow season plus the option to also hunt with a 

 rifle. 



Yes, except I would like a late archery season. 



Weather and animals are in their prime. 



Because it is a challenge. 



Nice time of year and game is plentiful. 



Because of the great number of hunting areas to pick from. 



I hunt only elk with a bow but can hunt with a rifle later. 



I had a good time hunting. 



The time and length of the season and the fact that you can hunt 

 all species. 



I used to bird hunt until the endrin scare, and now I bow hunt. 



Offers hunting with challenge and without crowds. 



Except for archery permits for elk in 621 and 623. 



We have a long season uninterrupted by crossbows, shotgun and 

 muzzleloader seasons, and we have the opportunity to hunt a wide 

 variety of areas and game species. 



Because I can still also hunt with a rifle. 



I hunt river bottoms; see lots of deer; season is long enough; 



quota acceptable. 



I don't do that much hunting with a bow. 



The fees seem fine, and there are a lot of land owners who will 

 allow archery hunting. 



It serves my needs . 



Good season dates, fair amount of game. 



I am a native Montanan and I love Montana.
