I hunt with Bow and Shotgun and buy the permits for extended hunting. So with the Bow I am allowed: 1 Buck during Fall Bow, 1 Buck during Permit Bow and 1 Buck During Winter Bow also Unlimited Antlerless Deer (Deer with antlers less than 3 " or none at all). During Shotgun 2 Bucks and unlimited antlerless deer. So the total I am allowed is 5 Bucks and all the Antlerless deer you want. During Permit shotgun your allowed 2 deer at a time before you have to check them in. Then get your tags and go back out again.and again. So in reality I can shoot all I need. which is usually 3-4. If I hunted muzzleloader I' d be able to take another Buck. Also where I hunt the Bucks must have atleast 3 points on 1 side.
