Too much pressure, too many amateurs, not enough trophy bulls. 

 Too many novice hunters . 



Because upland bird season opens the same time. 



Too much aircraft and ATV use mostly initiated by Forest Service 

 timber cruises. 



Too many people are out stirring up elk herds and poaching. 



In my areas 103 and 121 the outfitters are running wild with salt 

 blocks and excessive camps. 



More access to public lands. 



I'm not happy with clearcutting practices employed by the Forest 

 Service. 



Not enough education in proper hunting with bow. 



Too many people 



Guides or people with private land close to most areas close 

 hunters off or want a fortunate hunt. 



Archery hunting is becoming very popular, and the pressure is 

 showing. 



There needs to be a higher proportion of trophy bulls in the elk 

 population. 



Elk are hard to get a shot at. 



Need better access to areas, need more big geime. 



There aren't enough elk in Region 1. 



Longer seasons are needed. 



Elk populations are poor, no where near what Fish and Game says. 

 No, for the elk. Too many bigger bulls are being killed. 



Too many crippled animals . 



Not enough game (elk) . 



I think it should be bulls only with permits for cows. 



Elk populations are too low. Need branch antler only in rifle 

 season by permit. 



Lack of animals in northwest regions 100 and 101. 



Because there is not enough time to examine their habits.
