Deer Rules: Just Thought of Something

Dragthor · Aug 2, 2006

I just thought of something.

Let's say I shoot two does/bank-a-doe in a "red" zone in September.

After I check in the 2nd doe I get another tag valid for a 3rd deer, but only for "certain" zones.

Basically, I can no longer hunt/try to shoot a buck in Zone 6...since my 3rd deer tag is no good.

Damn it. [down]

Dragthor · Aug 2, 2006

luknikk... you are correct for EAB/BAD zones... but NOT zone 6 or 4.

luknikk · Aug 2, 2006

all you have is a 3rd deer transportation tag...

That tag is just for a buck in a EAB zone.

After you shoot your second deer... the check station gives you a 3rd deer transportation tag that is not valid in some zones (ie, 6 and 4).

Because that is your buck tag for only the permit zone you took your EAB.

you would still need to buy a permit for zone 6 for the extended season

Dragthor · Aug 2, 2006

luknikk - when have I ever mentioned extended season?

Again... if you shoot 2 does in Mendham in Sept... you CANNOT hunt in Zone 6 until extended season.

Period.

Looks like you have not read my posts... so I am done. Good night.

luknikk... you are correct for EAB/BAD zones... but NOT zone 6 or 4.

Ok I am gonna go over this senerio one more time.
Right now my bow license is valid for only fall bow.
So weather I hunt early bow or I start hunting when the season opens state wide That is what I bought this licence for.
SO if I hunt In Mendham early bow and I get a doe I am tagging her and getting a second deer tag. I can now kill a buck in this zone only until the state opens in Oct. Then I can kill a buck either in Zone 9 or zone 6. Lets say I kill a buck after I get my doe earle season, I could still BAD for my EAB zone come permit bow season. every zone says you are entitled to 1 BUCK DURING FALL AND 1 DURING PERMIT. tHE ONLY DIFFERENCE IS SOME ZONES ARE qdm AND SOME eab..

i am so confused right now [confused][confused][confused]

luknikk · Aug 2, 2006

Yes you can because that second doe is only going towards your EAB for permit. you are still allowed a buck. Zone 6- 1 buck 1 doe. Period.

No it's not really.. Ask yourself what is BAD for. Come permit bow you dont need to shoot a doe first. THATS IT.

i understand that...all this arguing back and fourth is confusing the sh*t out of me

deerhntr · Aug 2, 2006

Does any one know if you can shoot a buck in an eab zone the same day you shoot a doe?

luknikk · Aug 2, 2006

I'm not arguing But I am so passionate about hunting when I know I'm right I'm gonna make my point. I dont want him to think he cant shoot a buck just because he shot 2 does.

WoodruffLou · Aug 2, 2006

Lou carefull.........

oops....thanks rich...i cursed...shhh...dont tell anyone [hihi]

luknikk i totally understand you man....i was just readin everybodys posts and my head was spinning...lol....all different scenarios...i was tryin to piece things together but it just wasnt happening...lol

luknikk · Aug 2, 2006

As long as you check your doe in first

luknikk · Aug 2, 2006

Can't I shoot a doe every day....

If in the compendium under zone 2 it says 1 buck unlimited antlerless deer, then yes you could shoot 2 does a day as long as you check them first and get another tag

bloodtrails · Aug 2, 2006

Luk,

Sorry, your wrong. In zone 6 you are allowed 2 deer any sex during fall bow. Doesn't matter where you took those 2 deer, could be 2 in zone 8, your tags are not valid in zone 6. Period. Stupid, but that's how the law is written.

However, in extended bow the game starts again. 2 deer, no more.

just had to wait till bloodtrail got here for the right answer

I don'r think so. Here's the 2006-07 rules. Zone 9 is unlimeted does. therefore if I do not soot a buck in zone 9 come state opener I can shoot a buck there. Because my BAD is ONLY FOR ZONE 9

then I guess you'll be waiting for a while.LOL

Why would the state penalize me for shooting unlimited does in one zone and say I can't shoot a buck in another zone.
That's why you have buck stubs. I buck for each of the 3 seasons fall permit and winter bow.

But the supplimental deer tag from zone 9 counts as ONE antlerless deer, you still have a buck tag that can be utilized anywhere.

The supplimental deer tag cannot be used to take an antlerless deer in Zone 6 but you CAN go to Zone 9 and continue to take does.

Luk,

"BAD" has nothing to do with it. Buck tags have nothing to do with it.

• Note: Supplemental Deer Transportation Tags marked “valid for the taking of a 3rd or more deer” are not
valid in any zone within Regulation Sets # 1, 2 or 3.

In other words, if you already took 2 deer (buck or doe) from ANY other zone you cannot hunt in regulation sets 1,2 or 3.

Fall Bow (24 days): Sept. 30 - Oct. 27, 2006. Season bag limit is two deer, only ONE may be antlered.

That's the way I read it...2 deer total. That's it.

That's only because those zones only allow 2 deer. your second doe only counts towards your permit deer tag. So when I bank a doe it will say only valid in zone 9. I still am entitled to a buck that I can take anywhere in the state. I just cant tag a deer in zone 1-2-3 with that 3rd deer tag.

Thats only in that zone. 1-2-3 when you BAD your banking it for the zone you wish to permit bow hunt in that requires a EAB.

Sorry I am Being so addament about this. I know two things.. Plumbing and Hunting. I will call Fand W tomarrow and get this straight. If I am wrong shame on me. But why would the state punish me because i took 2 does for them.
