season. 



Not enough bulls per cows and season should not interfere with 

 the rut. 



Archery and rifle hunting should never coincide in the same 

 district, i.e. moose and bear early special seasons. 



Too many out of staters who have no respect for our resources and 

 rules . 



Too many elk are lost because of bad hits and poor tracking 

 skills. 



It's getting harder to find good trophy bulls 5x5 and better. 



We need more elk. 



Area 100 is too low in elk population. 



I would like to see some large road closure areas. 



I don ' t feel there are as many elk in western Montana as some 

 say. 



Herds are too small. 



Too many losses (animals) and too much poaching. 



Elk habitat is disrupted by logging practices. 



Grouse season opens same day as archery - gunshots and increased 

 activity cause game to change habits . 



Access to private land. 



Too many hunters . 



Access to national forest and private land is limited. Too damn 

 many outfitters. 



Need larger populations. 



A lot of good bugling occurs on private land and ranches. 

 Need to open stock farm. 



Access is closed to many areas unless guides are used. 



Not enough elk. 



Too many big bulls are taken by bugling; not enough cows. 



Not enough nice elk.
