crossbow deer season - how long and how many deer?
Just curious how long season lasts for everyone, and how many deer you can kill with your crossbow.
Here in Ohio crossbows are included in the list of allowable equipment from Sept. 26, 2009 until Feb. 7, 2010 this hunting season. That gives 135 days to kill up to 6 deer in my zone. Only one antlered deer allowed per season in Ohio. About the only days I don't crossbow hunt is gun season Nov 30 - Dec 6 + Dec 19 & 20 and muzzleloader season Jan 9 - 12.

Have 94 days and i can shoot 3 doe per day, 3 buck for the whole season. so if my math is right i could harvest {279} Deer. Now we all know that will not happen but you could by unit L in Tennessee regulations. I am shooting for 3 for the season that should feed the family for the year. I allso have about 40 pounds of Crappie and Bluegill fillets in the freezer, and hope to get into some walleyes this fall

In WV I can't use my crossbow at all.
Just over the mountain in VA I can hunt doe from Sept 5 to Oct 2, except Sundays, and can take two per day. From Oct 3 till Oct 30, except Sundays, I can take up to three bucks and unlimited doe (unlimited tags for purchase) with a two-per day limit.
Then muzzleloader season starts Oct 31 followed by gun Nov 14. I can hunt bucks until Jan 2, 2010 then continue hunting doe until Mar 27, 2010.
The three buck limit applies to the whole season with all methods as does the two-per-day max. As for doe, the tags are unlimited where I hunt.

The Massachusetts archery season runs from October 12th to November 21st. Two buck tags come with the license and there is a lottery for doe tags by hunting zones. Any left over doe permits can be bought over the counter.
I also hunt Connecticut which runs from September 15th to December 31st. In Connecticut you get 2 either sex tags and 2 antlerless tags. There is also a special January season that runs form January 1st to the 31st. For the January season you are allowed 1 either sex tags and 1 antlerless tags.
I have a crossbow permit for both states that allows me to hunt with a crossbow though Connecticut this year will now allow any hunter to hunt with a crossbow in the January season only.

deer season
Arkansas season is oct 1 thru feb 28 with no breaks; some WMA close jan 31 but most goes thru feb 28; total deer is 4 but only 2 can be bucks and we have a 3 point system that requires a buck to have 3 points on one side for it to be legal;
Hunt hard, respect what you hunt and waste no meat;
