That's my plan for the last week of August and up until moose season starts, definitely seem to have an excellent bear population up around the camp.
Just got my Antlerless deer tag!
- Thread starter new and novice
- Start date
I can't get too excited about getting a doe tag... I only take one on the last day or two of the season and my freezer is still full... they are very nice to have in your "group pocket" when young or novice hunters are hunting, to increase their experience and excitement. I always recommend taking the first legal deer that a new hunter has a clean, clear shot at... when a really good deer comes along, those experiences can make the difference between disappointment and elation...

No doe tag for me this year...which sucks because I will be out with my apprentice daughter and like hoytcannon said, for someone like her, it adds to the opportunity and excitement. And, also because, where we hunt, we see lots of does and fawns, rarely bucks.

I think the horrible winter/spring we had played havoc with survival and fawning rates.
Unsuccessful for 46 and 53A... we can party hunt on my friends antlerless tag in 46 though
I called the Aurora MNR detachment and they said that if people have not received their antlered or antlerless license's/tags yet they should give it another 2 weeks for the mail system to catch up.
The draw and tags come from a private company in Tennessee. They sourced it out a few years ago.

Was my first year putting in for antlerless in that area, usually just go there for moose. But since you can't get moose tags there anymore deer it is, so lucky me.

I spoke with my friend who lives in our hunting area and he found the same thing while walking around this spring.
