Elk herds need to be developed more in south central Montana - 

 Pryors, Bulls, Beartooths . 



We need a late season hunt for either sex in more areas . 



Should be branch antlered bull in all regions especially in gun 

 season. 



There aren't enough bulls and the elk ranges are overgrazed by 

 cattle. 



They're too far back, you have a hard time getting the meat out 

 without spoiling. 



Very disappointed with national forests of the west with roads 

 and cattle upsetting the wild experience. 



Not enough big bulls. 



Too many hunters and there should be a limit on size of bull elk 

 taken. 



Because there are too many hunters and permit hunting. 



They are allowed too much access by vehicles to hunting areas. 



I would like to see more designated archery only areas. 



There needs to be a post season. 



Too many hunters, in staters and out of staters, who don't know 

 what the purpose of hunting with a bow is. 



License quotas for nonresidents and trophy management favors 

 guides and rich clients. 



There's not a lot of elk. More areas should be branch antlered 



only. 



All good areas are closed by ranchers (C.A. Ranch). 



Poor quality hunters with bows. 



Local areas controlled by either /or restrictions. 



I didn't hunt elk this year or last year because of the permits 

 required for 621 and 620 etc. I had been hunting on the south 

 side of the river but now that is overpopulated with people due 

 to permit only areas. I disagree with the count of elk at the 

 Missouri River Breaks. I feel something better could have been 

 done than the permits . 



Restrict out of staters to one license every two years.
