How many deer can you take legally in your state?

[hunter322]

in nebraska you can shoot two bucks and you can keep getting doe tags until they run out.

In Rhode Island the legal limit is 6 either sex, 2 AO and 4 either sex + 6 antlerless deer (antlerless meaning a deer with antler length of 3" or less). So, in Rhode Island you can legally take 12 deer. No one I know hits that mark, but I am sure there are some, we have a #!*% load of deer in RI. It's tough getting landowner permission (These #s do not include muzzle loader or shotgun)

2 a day throughout the entire hunting season. This includes all legal weapon seasons.

One unless you either get lucky and get a controlled hunt for an 'extra deer'; or you can buy out of state licenses that are left over at non-resident prices until they run out.

Fork on one side big enough to hang a ring on or larger bucks.

No rut hunts. Cali sucks for deer hunting.

And your lucky to get one. Our buck to doe is like 20 does to one buck in most places, or worse.

If you live East of the Blue Ridge & not hunting on National Forest Lands you are able to take 6 Deer w/ 3 of them needing to be Antlerless but you are able to purchase a extra game stamp to take more.

Kentucky is zoned depending on deer density. One buck and as many does as you buy tags for in zones I hunt.

[Wile E. Coyote]

Louisiana: 1 Buck 1 Doe daily. Season limit 3 Bucks 3 Does.

Here in Arizona you are allowed one buck per year.  You are not allowed to hunt does at all.

Varies in Texas. Depends on what the Parks and Wildlife department in Texas sets it. Set by counties. Can go to Texas department of Parks and Wildlife web site and look at the 254 counties in Texas...YES..there are 254 counties in Texas. You know at one time we were a Republic..Country ourselves.

Ive come to accept the fact that our DNR is more concerned with revenue than actually managing a successful deer herd.  Im pretty much sick of the idiots that run our DNR.  In our state you can shoot the allotted number of bonus does in each county.  So if a guy wanted to travel to each county and shoot his limit of does in that county, a single guy could kill somethine like 300+ does.  And after all that carnage they would only allow him to kill one buck.  Is that really what our herd needs?  A complete slaughter?  Or is that what the money talks people want?  Save the bucks to create bigger ones so we can get more out of state money in here?  IDIOTS don't realize what leasing will do to the average JOE trying to teach his kids to hunt in this state down the road.  We dont have much public land scattered across this state so that doesnt seem to be a healthy option for guys that will eventually get overrun with outfitters and leasing agents.

In the Lowcountry where I live in South Carolina.  You can kill unlimited antlered bucks (antlers 2" plus) and you can buy 4 over the counter doe tags plus we have 12 either sex days that you can kill 2 does a piece on.  Our season is Aug 15th-Jan. 1st.  Quite a lot of deer you could kill aint it.......Oh and also you can hunt on WMA's and and kill even more does there without tags depending on the limit per WMA.

West of the Blue Ridge in Va. we get three doe tags, 2 buck tags, 1 bear. and 3 turkey either sex. One extra tag for either sex for east of the ridge.

[bentpole]

TOOOOO MANY!!!      

[Buckeye Trad Hunter]

Here in Ohio we are allowed one buck and five does or you can use your buck tag for a doe also.

[dave19113]

In VA at Fort Belvoir.. Its 2 does a day 6 dsys a week......Gotta love it!!!!

[Shawn Leonard]

I hunt a bow only area in NY. I can kill unlimited does as long as I check the head in with DEC and get another tag. I also can shoot up to 4 bucks by using early season either sex tag and than later my regular season tag, than using tags that are good for buck or doe that I got by turning those doe heads in. As soon as I  shoot a buck on one of those tags that I recieved from turning in a does head that tag is done. Shawn

Lots of tags here in Wi. but not too many deer to fill them with.  

[Mojo Rising]

In Utah it is one mule deer buck or doe and one bull or cow elk per year. Some of you guys can harvest more deer in a few years than I may in ten, and I'm jealous!

[Airborne]

Yeah--Utah stinks!  We just don't have the deer numbers.  DNR says we have about 280,000 deer in the state, I think Ohio has around 800,000!
