Double season before and after rifle season. Limited. 



Bird season opens, which increases activity. 



Too many people have started archery hunting. Should hunt with 

 bow or rifle. 



Give less rifle permits and more archery permits. 



Because there seems to be less elk. 



Because the Clark Fork River bottom has a lot of poaching. 



Because the lack of animals in the north fork and the south fork 

 of the Flathead River. 



I would like to see an archery season after the rifle season as 

 well . 



Too many wounded animals and too many people hunting, especially 

 during the rut. 



Nothing has ever been dome to help the archer. It has been a do 

 as you please no information on vital areas, practice areas and 

 no general information. Nothing has been done to preserve 

 habitat for wildlife. 



There is too much land that cannot be hunted where there is high 

 animal concentrations . 



Bird gun hunting and archery should not open at the same time. 



I would like a late season hunt for elk after general season. 



I think people should hunt with rifle or bow, not both. 



Archeiry hunters should have to qualify on a test course before 

 receiving a license. 



Too many road closures. 



Too much pressure from out of state hunters through a high number 

 of outfitters in this area (121). 



Increased hunting pressure by nonserious bow hunters . 



Too many hunters take bad shots that result in wounded animals; 

 educational course should be required. 



Should be issued a tag for either sex, either species with bow 

 stamp. Also season should be opened after general season. 



Season isn't long enough.
