Season is long enough; wish there was an archery only area for 

 sheep, goat, and moose. 



Offers challenge without crowded hunting. 



We can buy an archery license without attending a course! 



It comes at a time when I have a break in my farming operation. 



Good long period; more roads open to get to other areas to hunt. 



Yes, except I would like to see a post general season archery 

 hunt . 



There are many opportunities for a varied selection of big game 

 animals. 



It generally happens during the rut for both elk and antelope. 



September is a good time of year in my area for weather 

 conditions. 



The season is long and the weather is mild. 



It gives me a chance to get out in the field in nice weather. 



Offers a good opportunity to get out when the weather is good. 



It starts at the right time, lasts long enough, and there isn't 

 too much competition from other hunters . 



The season is right in length and time. 



Because we aren't burdened with a lot of regulations. 



First time hunter. 



The hunting is outstanding; the best game availability in the 

 lower forty-eight states; the best area for trophy whitetail 

 deer; ample season length. 



Yes, except hunters should have to apply for all areas for either 

 archery or rifle - not both. 



Because there aren't as many hunters in the district I hunt 

 during bow season. 



Because of the time it gives me to be in nature and the time to 

 look for trophy whitetails. Also I enjoy seeing other wildlife 

 (coyotes, etc.) and I enjoy seeing deer so close. I hunt from a 

 tree stand.
