Welcome to the doe only seasons...in 20-freaking-15!

 

It's official.

[growalot]

Details Phade! I need to get my doe tags for 8m and 8x

[The_Field_Ager]

I won't be shooting any doe. Guess I need to get my own processing gear now.

[Lawdwaz]

But, but, but.......................................

[DirtTime]

I was doing to ask for a link, but I just went and got it on my own.

Wow, that's a big chunk of the state they made severe changes too. I have to double check, I think one of the areas I will be in the SZ will be involved.

 

 

[The_Field_Ager]

wow

[phade]

mz season too!

[growalot]

So there you have it..I get my tags for *m right next door and Camp 8x,,,Just told Mr B be prepared I will be going to Camp and coming home late from the friends land in 8M..

[Lawdwaz]

Thanks for the link .......rob.

 

 

Those changes really suck.........................why bone the bow and ML hunters so bad?

 

I'm going to put some ink to paper and send it off to Harrisburg.  OH wait, this isn't Pennsylvania!

 

 

YET.

[phade]

no real need to own a mz  now...

You never hunt with your muzzleloader during the regular season?

Nope. Why would I in rifle zones or when I have an H&R Ultra Slug tackdriver? MZ is a mistfit. If I want a challenge in gun, I pick up the bow. It just has no fit in an area with a just over a week long late season to shoot does only. Makes my Vortek UL look like a bad buy. I feel bad for the whackos with high end TCs.

Are they giving out more doe tags then or just one deer during the first 15 days. Either way it's bullshit

[DirtTime]

All these changes are really effecting the SZ ( which consists of WNY, SNY, and the areas of NYC/LI, for the most part Rt 29 is the divider ).

WOW.

 

For me, it looks like a one deer season.

What is weird is the anterless only is Oct 1 - Oct 15 and Dec 14 - Dec 22 which means you can shoot a buck between Oct 16 and Dec 13 ....... hmmmmmmmm!

 

[The_Field_Ager]

Did I just read this correctly? Is there a hunting hiatus for the Antler-less portions of the map where gun used t be? No regular season?

[phade]

What is so weird? It's the first two weeks of bow and the late bow/muzzleloader season. Pretty simple to understand. Taking two of the best weeks to shoot a buck out of consideration (first and last weeks).

This makes no sense!?

[bkln]

I'm in in the east, so basically nothing changes for me, but it sucks for some other areas. For instance at Sterling Forest you will see the big 12 pointer and you can't shoot it during bow or MZ season... it blows. In western NY they basically declared war on does, I guess you have too many deer...

[monkeyman2269]

Hmm mm who wants to be i the stand and watch big bucks go by

I wish!

[jjb4900]

even worse, for the buck hunters anyway, is you will have guys stomping around the first two weeks sending the buck that they have been watching all summer into alert mode......kinda screws up the early season ambush.

[The_Field_Ager]

The map also seems to indicate that the hunting restrictions around  Buffalo (9c)  are gone!?

[phade]

If we had too many does, the gun season would (or should) have been utilized. This is bad decision making and bad biology.
