Yes, except as long as there can be an open late season hunt. 



Most landowners will allow bow hunting but as more bow hunters 

 emerge I expect this to change. 



Yes, except would like to see less hunters. 



Season length, less crowded than rifle season. 



Because I can get out when the elk are bugling and the weather is 

 bearable just being in the field. 



Little or no competition provides easy access to animals that are 

 relatively calm. 



The elk is a hard animal to hunt and it increases the safety and 

 ways to hunt. 



I guess because this is the first year I went elk hunting and I 



bagged a nice bull. 



Because the elk are out there if you can get them. 



Because it is the same every year. 



Good opportunity, either sex option. 



Love to hunt. 



Because I saw some. 



Right time, either sex, season is long enough, and minimal 

 bureaucratic requirements . 



Good herds . 



We have plenty of game and land to hunt on (Forest Service). 



Many good areas, long season, good population density of animals. 



Because it is either sex and the sighting of elk seems more 

 common . 



I have enjoyed every day I went out. 



I think our elk herds are well managed. We have a generous 

 season and lots of room to hunt. 



It's a challenge to hunt (stalk) the game. 



There are plenty of animals to hunt. 



I have been close, but never able to get a good shot.
