Here in NC, bow season opens in September, usually around the 10th...
Muzzleloading starts about Oct 10th down east and November 10 in the Piedmont...Muzzleloading runs a week and then the general gun season
runs until January 1st...In addition, we have unlimited doe tags in NC this
year, I've already killed 7 does and one buck...

So, no, starting the season in September and running through January won't affect the herds...Once most guys have skinned and butchered 5-6 deer, they are through for the season anyway...
