RE: Tagging A Deer For Your Wife, Girlfriend, Kid - Whatever?
In maine you are allowed only one deer no matter what weapon you use, and the only way to obtain an any deer permit (for a doe tag)is thru the lottery.We have a couple of zones where bonus tags are awarded on a lottery basis, but most are along the coast where their is not alot of hunting.We also have an extended archery season that started last Saturday and goes til Sept. 26 when our regular archery season starts.The extended season is only in a few areas near the bigger cities, and also resumes after rifle season for two more weeks in those selected areas.As for people tagging other peoples deer that is very common in Maine, you wouldn't believe the amount of women who draw moose tags thru the lottery (which is very hard to get), and you can bet a majority are not hunters.
