May be the last year to hunt bear in August as well as get 2 bear tags.......Everyone should get after it and kill a few fawn killers.

Wow. They are legal now.

Sights must be open, peep, of other open sight design, or scopes not exceeding 1x magnification. Fiber optic sights are legal. Telescopic sights are prohibited. d. It is unlawful to have any electrical aiming device attached to a muzzleloading firearm while hunting except for red-dot or similar electronically powered scopes not exceeding 1x magnification.

Why is it they aren’t able to publish the cougar season because it isn’t approved yet but they published that hunter orange and pink are required for all big game and that isn’t approved yet either?

[HillHound]

Well I’m always coyote hunting then. If I shoot a bear the orange will come out of the pack and then I will be a bear hunter

I didn't see anything new about cross-bows for old guys so I'm guessing that didn't pass.

It’s only listed as able use during modern firearm so I guess it didn’t get added to muzzleloader either.

Would have eliminated the need for 65 and over to have the crossbow disability permit.

I see bear season still opens on August 1 and you can harvest two bears statewide.

Cougar says waiting for more research. I wondered if that meant you can’t hunt them right now but the quota page says most units are still open.

[Wood2Sawdust]

When will 2023  Harvest Reports come out?

Not if we all stand our ground and do our due diligence. It’s going to take an army but it’s possible.

 orange required for bear, is this new?

[ghosthunter]

Over 65

In some mule deer units

Any Buck, whitetail antherless.


Same for some youth hunts.
