RE: Pa over-the-counter doe permits
The last two seasons I went down to the Allegheny County courthouse (2B)and purchased my doe tags over the counter. In fact, last year I bought my dog license while I was there: it is the same place. They usually have several thousand left over at the end of the season, so I have been able to get one as late as January.
This year I mailed in for two tags to save on the trip to the courthouse. Of course, if they don't arrive soon I will end up making the trip anyway.
