Title: second deer question
Post by: Jamieb on June 08, 2012, 11:36:29 PM: I drew a second deer permit for Northriver.
Can I fill the northriver doe tag before my buck tag?
The area I hunt deer in I dont see any bucks until later in the season so I'd like to hunt for a doe in Northriver first.

"You must purchase a second deer tag to participate in this hunt and only the second tag can be used in the second deer permit hunt. The second tag must be the same weapon choice as your first tag. You may hunt only with the hunting method in compliance with your tag."

The second deer tag will cost $68.

Good luck on your hunts.

Keep that card with you on your hunts along with the new license. :twocents: It could save you some hunting time if a gamie checks you out. For some reason it is much easier for them if you have all your info with you.

A lot of hunters don't realize that they are required to have the permit with them. It's not optional: it must be with you to legally hunt the second season.
