Default DEER BAG LIMITS IN PA, please explain?

Hey everyone,

I live in NJ and I want to get into hunting for meat. NJ has lots of good deer hunting but I am curious about hunting in PA, particularly because it isn't as crowded and I have a Marlin .30-30 that I want to use.

What is the maximum deer bag limit in PA? As in, theoretically, I went out hunting from September to February, with a rifle, a flintlock and a crossbow, what is the maximum amount of deer I can harvest? The PA gov website says 'One antlered deer per hunting license year. An antlerless deer with each required antlerless license' for each weapon category. Does this mean I can take three antlered deer if I use a rifle for one, a flintlock for one, and a bow for another? Or only one buck per year? Can I purchase multiple anterless licenses? My goal is to stock a meat freezer as full as possible.

Thanks for reading, I appreciate input from PA whitetail hunters!
