I feel it should be more of a challenge. It keeps the people who 

 aren't serious out of it. 



I think it's getting a bit better for elk. 



Able to hunt both sexes, it gives you a better chance. 



Because of the ability to purchase an archery stamp without a 

 drawing. 



Because although I have not yet killed one, I've come close. 



Yes, except elk numbers are low in some areas. 



We can hunt in areas where only special drawing is available for 

 rifle hunting. 



Elk population is good, and hunting has been successful until 

 this year (1987) . 



At least I see elk and get fairly close. Hardly ever see elk 

 while gun hunting. 



Fair amount of game; not too many hunters. 



Love it! 



Yes, except I would like to see elk populations grow. 



Because of the separate bow season and the length of time in 

 which to hunt . 



I've had what I call personal success and never filled an elk 

 tag. 



Good numbers of animals and long season provide good chance for 

 good bow hunter to be successful. 



Yes, I love to get out and bugle for elk. Archery is a good 

 sport . 



Allows hunting during the entire rut. 



Yes, except one area 284, I feel the late archery should include 

 cows also. 



Because I like the outdoors. 



Status quo works . 



Some very good areas and not much pressure. 



Yes, except I don't think it's fair to hunt rifles in Bob
