High hunt question
« on: May 17, 2020, 02:28:58 PM »
I've got a question that hopefully one of you can answer: If I get my deer permit with bow as my weapon of choice, can I still hunt the high hunt with a rifle as it is listed as any weapon for that hunt? It's worded in a way that's a bit confusing.

Its listed under modern firearm hunts.  So youd need a mf or multi tag.  All modern firearms hunts are "any legal weapon" as long as you have a mf tag.

You can hunt the same areas under the archery seasons, September 1-25. For example look at GMUs 244 and 249 in the early archery seasons. The one area I know you can't hunt with an archery tag in September is the Pasayten. (GMU 203)

But no, you can't use a rifle when you have an archery tag.

The way I read it you can hunt it with a bow but think hunter orange is required correct?

Yes. Hunter orange is required for all hunters in all general deer seasons open to modern firearms.
Nature. It's cheaper than therapy.

Thanks. That's what I thought but the wording was unclear.
