Hunting pressure is not heavy; one can hunt either sex; season is 

 at the right time. 



The season gives me everything I need. 



I called in many bull elk. I did not shoot at any because of no 

 good shots available at bull. Passed several cows up. 



Because there are not a lot of restrictions as in the big game 

 regular season. 



I think it is just right, I don't see very many hunters. 



I feel that there isn't as many people hunting with a bow. 



Pleasant time of year, game not as sppoky, can be selective. 



I like to mainly hunt river and creek bottom areas. 



Because there are many deer and elk. 



A time to go hunting other than rifle. 



It is a quality hunting period uncluttered by roaring engines and 

 loud booms . 



I feel it is in the best time of the year (elk rut, warm 

 weather), and the rules offer a greater challenge. 



Access was a little easier this year. 



I just started and everything is perfect. 



September and October are nice before gun season but I like the 

 archery season only places . 



Because of the length of the season and numbers of elk I 



Quality hunting, few crowds, generous season. 



As compared to other states out system is by far the best. 



Good and long season, either sex mostly, before rifle. 



It seems to be organized properly and most archers seem happy. 



Prior to general season with fewer people involved. 



Yes, except in North Dakota you can shoot a buck with the bow and 

 still get a buck tag with the gun if drawn. 



Generally see more game during the season.
