141.41 genral hunting regs. It is unlawfull to harvest more than one deer at a time before lawfuly tagging a deer previously harvasted when multiple harvest of deer per day are authorized. Except as otherwise provided in 141.1 {special reg areas}. So except in special areas, popping multiple deer at one time is unlawful.

I guess it depends on how you define "at the same time". Does it mean from the same stand on the same deer or does it mean shooting two deer before you tag one. Or does it mean shooting two deer before you tagged, gutted and removed the first deer as you implied.

No I don't have any use for greedy slobs, but I don't see where we gain anything by labeling hunters with multiple tags who harvest more than one doe /day as greedy, whether the doe are shot 5 minutes apart. 5 hours apart or 5 days apart. With the reduced deer herd I doubt very much that the number of doe that are harvested before tagging the first doe has any impact on future hunting.
The last time we had so few deer in the state I believe ( not sure)hunters were allowed one deer/hunter /years. Now every hunter is able to harvest a buck and as many antlerless deer as he has permits. That's the real problem and I don't see any solution accept for enough hunters quitting so that the PGC loses the ability to control the herd and that is a terrible solution.

By dealing with the tagging process on the deer you just harvested should give the remaining deer enough time to identify the threat and flee to safety. If they decide to hang around and wait for you fill out your tag and attach it to the deers ear, then thats their problem.

All hunters that hunt with a rifle, all hunters that shoot does, all hunters that particapate on organized deer drives, and all hunters that hunt from a camp or group are NOT greedy slobs as you seem to imply.

No they are not. But the ones who knowingly break game laws to fill their tags are.
