Re: whats the limit for whitetails in your county?

I live and hunt in CT so this can be confusing...lol

ARCHERY

Sept 15- Dec 31...4 deer....2 must be antlerless.Unlimited replacement tags for doe in certain DMA's

Jan1- Jan 31....2 Deer...I must be antlerless. Replacement tags are available for each doe shot.

Shotgun/State land...1 deer, either sex

Shotgun/Rifle Private Land...2 deer. 1 must be antlerless. Replacement tags available for does in certain DMA's

MUZZLELOADER

State land...1 deer. Either sex

Private Land... 2 deer. I must be antlerless. Replacement tags available in certain DMA's

If I were to fill all my tags I can take 12 deer, and up to 6 bucks. Plus replacement tags if it applies. not that I would even think of taking that many deer.

right where i am it is one buck tag over the counter, you can apply to make that one buck tag and either sex tag. you can then purchase extra doe tags that are available to a maximum of three per person. So the total is 4 deer(any season, weapon combination) and it can either be four does, or three does and one buck.

Re: whats the limit for whitetails in your county?

Could be a little confusing here this year too if you hunt open public land. A few new changes were made that threw out the ol' KISS concept.

For private land it's 3 bucks (4point or better) and 3 does; however we can take 2 additional does with a bow. The daily bag limit is 1 legal buck and 1 doe. Also on private lands only, a youth hunter (15 years old or younger) can kill 1 buck with any size hardened antler. That youth's other 2 bucks must be legal bucks.

For public land the same bag limits apply except regardless of the age of the hunter, all bucks must be legal bucks and there's only 2 days (Dec. 18 & 19) during the open gun season when does are legal. The rest of gun season (the other 39 days) its legal bucks only on open public land. Does are legal during the 2 primitive weapon seasons and bow season. Wildlife Management areas have their own special rules that are different from one to the next.

Three bucks a year statewide...Three deer a day everyday of the season (three does or one buck and two does)...

A bunch.

Regular archery/gun is one deer, either sex if you get drawn for an any deer permit. One buck only if you do not. Expanded archery is one buck, and as many does as you wish providing you buy the over the counter tags. Sounds really great...but the hunting is pretty hard here.

Archery-4 deer and only 2 may be bucks

Gun-1 buck and 1 doe

Black Powder-1 buck and 1 doe

Special antlerless- 1 doe

Definition of antlerless/doe- any deer not having 3 inches of antler on either side.

Wish they would change that, to many button bucks and small spikes being killed under the antlerless description.
