Cooler weather, better rut activity, hopefully more vocal elk, I like it! Season starts on a Saturday tho, I kinda like mid week start dates lol

This state is so gay about starting on saturday's, I talked to the new permit manager a few days ago and he said that half the hunters want the opener to start on saturdays.  I like it better knowing each year when my hunt starts, Idaho rocks!

We already know the opening day for 2016 and 2017. Is that far enough in advance?

Would you rather it start the Tuesday after Labor Day like last year?

I don't know about you but I prefer the Sat after to the Tues after.

Stop hating on progress!

Starting on Saturday is sweet no I won't need to use any vacation to go elk hunting.

I personally hate the saturday start.  Everyone in the woods on the same day.  I am not complaining about the change as it is much better for sure.  Would love to see it be the 12-24 every year regardless of which day the 12th lands on.

The "personally" part is hard to swallow here. We advocate and argue for seasons that the vast majority of hunters will appreciate. I take all of September off to hunt elk, and I know where this "personally" comes from.  But I want the most possible hunters to be the happiest with our decisions. Most hunters only spend 6 days in the woods, and if getting 2 guaranteed weekends in the seasons can move that to 6.5, then I consider that a big win for the bowhunters in the state.

I talked with wdfw the other day about this and they told me it was actually split 50% on the whole Saturday start.  Not trying to be an internet fact nerd, just saying.

I can't wait. Hoping to take a couple 4 day trips around the weekends to not miss as much work time!

These are some great dates that's for sure makes me sick to think I won't be here for archery but I am going to try muzzy here for the first time should be a great bow season for all the archery hunters. Thanks Todd and all that contributed wiith working with our state I believe this is a good point in the right direction
