In some of the districts the hunters are managed, not the game. 



Would like to see it open earlier and maybe have special late elk 

 season. 



Need a way to ride motorbike for transportation; too much 

 wilderness . 



Because I have seen very few trophy class animals. 



Enforcement in 455 is non-existent; poaching has skyrocketed. 



Does not seem to be near as many deer as there have been. 



I'm upset that so few ranchers and farmers will allow people to 

 hunt. I checked sixty-one different places and only seven would 

 let me on. 



You can't hunt where you want without a permit. 



Access problems severely restrict use of much prime hunting 

 habitat. 



Too many uneducated hunters in the field and not the trophy 

 animals that there were ten years ago. 



I'm new to Montana resident hunting and archery hunting but I 

 favor having an archery education course and/or general big game 

 hunters and conservation courses mandatory for hunters . 



Need season or areas open after general season. 



I think season should close the same time but open a few weeks 

 earlier. 



I think bow hunters should have another deer type "A" tag good 

 only during archery season. 



Too many hunters and not enough elk. 



There are too many "nonserious" archers. 



There is beginning to be too many nonavid bowhunters . 



Must compete with rifle permit drawing as to which I will put in 

 for. 



Would like to see the season extended through whitetail rut. 



The season is too short and a late season bow hunt would be 

 nice.
