1) Season is at the right time; 2) long season 3) variety of 

 opportunities . 



I enjoy seeing the elk during their mating season. 



Lots of hunters; we need manual only bows. 



Time of year, game population, scenery, and friends. 



No one will walk in where I go so I have very little competition. 



Bugled in a lot of elk but none close enough for shot. 



Plenty of elk, but very challenging. 



Season seeems to be fair on most all counts and allows for good 

 success . 



Less hunter competition; more contact with elk during rut with 

 bugling and camoflauge. 



If anyone says no, it's only because they can't find any elk. 



Better chances at seeing big game. 



The season runs through the rut and is long. 



I don't see very many problems and the game is there if you want 



to go for it. 



Because the bugling season is during the bow season. 



I really don't hunt for elk with a bow. 



Because everybody has the same chance. 



Because of the numbers in the field. 



There's not too many hunters and I like to bugle elk. 



Because there are plenty of elk. 



I can go any place in the state that is legal and enjoy the 

 outdoors, the bugling, and the animals. 



I saw a lot of elk this year and we see more and more elk year by 

 year. 



Opportunity to hunt during the rut. 



The bugling is good. 



Animals are available and pressure in my area is relatively 

 light.
