It isn't cost prohibitive and allows a citizen to hunt in a 

 sporting way one on one with the wild game. 



It affords an opportunity to hunt big game before deep snow and 



cold set in. 



Because there are many places to hunt. 



I enjoy the sport. 



Yes, except we need more access to state and federal lands. 



It affordsbow hunters a greater chance to kill an elk or deer 

 because of the early season. 



It seems to fit in well with the general season (rifle) . 



You have a good long season with many chances . 



I like it. 



The season isn't too short. I can still hunt during rifle 

 season. 



Less hunters; see more game; more challenging than rifle hunting. 



I believe archers have an advantage being able to hunt areas that 

 require a permit by rifle hunters. 



It gives everyone a chance to enjoy the sport of archery. 



I have time to hunt and it provides a "nice" extended season. 



Very relaxing sport - no one in the woods . 



Ample game, not too many hunters. 



Because I can get out with a good chance of shooting at 

 something. 



Why not? 



Because I love to hunt with my bow and rifle. 



It provides opportunity for most people to hunt except for access 

 to private property which in some cases is hard to find. 



Long season. 



Early season, not as many people out. 



Lots of fun.
