Definitely all in for archery ...Just gave me some new opportunity I can not let slide by  :tup: :archery_smiley: Just maybe I will have a chance to put a New Radsav broadhead to work  :tup:

Im all in as well! Im excited for this year. I have all of elk season off.. so I really hope I get really close to some bulls at the very least to where they are slobbering on me but hopefully I can connect with my first bull or cow if one happens upon me.  :tup:

Looks like a lot of archery hunters so fat this year. Great season. I still can't decide. It seems making some changes is good to disperse the hunters a little

My biggest gripe with muzzy season had always been the crowds.  With the improved archery dates, and vastly increased muzzy opportunities it may be much less crowded this year.

I'm hoping muzzleloader season will be less crowded, but I'm not counting on it. I think it depends on how many who normally hunt modern decide to switch over to muzzleloader this year. It may not be too many, since the season is still only seven days, it's still after the peak of the rut, and there are no additional antlerless opportunities. Also, late season opportunities actually decreased due to the elimination of Coweeman.

If I did not love archery season so much I would go ML! The addition of units to ML I think is going to draw a lot of archery hunters away because they know the unit they normally hunt and will now be able to reach out with a ML. Knowing your archery unit that other ML hunters have never hunted is going to be a huge advantage for new ML hunters! Can't wait to see what increase there is in ML hunters and their success rates after this year!

The success rates will probably be irrelevant.  If modern hunters switch it might be good for me to stay modern. Maybe less competition. But where I go there isn't any anyway by horseback
