    My season starts Sept 30 here in Ohio. Can't wait. I can take up to 3 deer in my county. Only 1 buck allowed. Usually try to get a doe down early and spend rest of the season chasing one or two "hit list" bucks. No buck last year. Just wondering how many deer you guys usually take? Good luck to everyone in Ohio.

    We can kill 4 bucks and Unlimted +20 does. Unlimited with archery and 10 each with shotgun and ML. MD just wants dead deer they don’t view them as a resource unfortunately.

    In Pa you can only kill one buck, but in my WMU (5D) you can kill unlimited doe with an antlerless tag for each one. I only applied for one doe tag (which I already used) because the deer numbers are down in my hunting area.

    Ohio is weird with the doe tags. They have antlerless tags and either sex tags. In my county I cannot use antlerless tag ($15) for does. I have to buy either sex tags ($24). Ohio only allows one buck. So in my county I can buy up to 3 either sex tags but can only take one buck. Why not just have 1 buck tag for hunters and rest of tags can be antlerless. And antlerless tags are only good until November 26. After that it is either sex tags only. You really have to watch what county you hunt.

    One buck and Limited doe tags. You buy them per county. Once the county is out, then you are done.

    For me personally this year in Illinois I have tags for 2 does and 2 bucks. If I wanted to keep killing does I could just keep buying archery tags there is no limit.

    In Indiana I have tags for 1 buck and 2 does. My county also has a bonus quota of 4 so that means I can take 4 more does if I wanted.
