open archery two weeks before bird season. 



Lack of accessible land. 



I would like to also bow hunt for at least two weeks after rifle 

 season is closed. 



There should also be a late season hunt open for archery. 



Too much discrimination against bow hunters by Game and Fish 

 Department . 



Not the district hunting in 621, 622, and 623. 



Understanding hunting is a big business. I feel we should allow 

 the first and second week of the season to resident hunters, then 

 open it to out of state hunters. 



Too many hunters . 



Would like area 324 open again. 



It might be better if it was a little longer. 



Too many people in the woods who don't know how to shoot their 

 bow, wounding a lot of elk. 



Females should not be killed. 



Getting to be too many districts closed to archery hunters . 

 Regulating people or animals? 



Would like to see archery season lengthened. 



Need longer season. 



Poor access and in my opinion very low deer and elk populations . 



Because all the Fish and Game does it to collect money. I do not 

 see any put back in the eastern part of the state. 



I feel you should be able to harvest a deer with archery and 

 rifle, if possible. 



The FWP is more concerned with selling nonresident licenses than 

 managing game herds in eastern Montana, consequently no deer I 



Too many unexperienced archers wounding animals . 



The main herd of elk in 293 stayed on private land that was on a 

 hunter pay basis.
