What the heck.

As some of you may have read I tagged, shot, arrowed, downed, killed, harvested, bagged a deer. Well on my way to college today I stopped at the Aurora Ministry of Natural Resources to buy another tag. The person at the counter asked me if I wanted to buy more than the one tag , as I am allowed to get 7 deer for my area. I looked at her puzzled and said if I remember correctly it says in the regs that we are not allowed to have more than 1 tag at a time and she threw a puzzled look at me and that was all. I know she is not new there as I have seen her in previous years. This is what it says in the regs:It is illegal for a person to apply for, purchase or possess more than one license tag each for moose, deer, or
black bear.
So let’s just say I did buy more than one tag and got checked while hunting, I guess I would be getting a fine .

You are confusing your deer tag with your deer licence.
You can only buy one licence per season, but you can possess as many tags as you can get.
Your licence is what you attaches to your hunting licence (comes with buck tag), your tag (additional) is what you attach to a deer.
She was correct.

O.K call me stupid then lol ....thanks for clearing that up for me as I clearly I misunderstood it.

[Pydpiper]

Nope, not stupid, it was an honest mistake.
This year I bought two deer licences, the big no-no. Wife ordered them early season by phone, 2 days before the opening I panicked and bought my deer licence, again. A quick call fixed it right up. That, was stupid.
Good luck, if I had 7 tags I wouldn't sleep.

These are additional deer tags and you can purchase as many as is allowed.

Cool I think it is best to take it one deer at a time, I always buy a second tag after harvest of the first deer, but have yet to fill 2 tags in a season.Should I say "cross my fingers" again. Plus I drive by the M.N.R. everyday.

What WMU do you bow hunt in?

[TrophyBuck]

As some of you may have read I caught a deer. sorry I just have to laugh after you cought your deer did you kill it? or did you practice catch and release and let it go!!! Ha Ha Ha hope your not offended just poking a little fun at ya

[Hazmat]

Usually when I tell non hunters that I went hunting the first thing they ask is did you catch one?

[Dereck]

I know a guy who invited me deer hunting a few years ago.I told him I did not have a doe tag he said no problem I have six tags.
As far as I know he still had six tags at the end of the season.
an expensive deer season

I buy mine one at a time.

X2 and I always tell them no , they run way to fast

These days it's unusual to allow that many tags per hunter. With deer numbers down in many areas, as here, it's only one.

You can buy additional tags one at a time if you wish, but how many do they have available? Two or two hundred? Will they run out next month, or tomorow? How many deer can you handle?

You'll need an unfilled tag in order to hunt, of course, whether you harvest anything or not. Just some things to consider.

Good luck,

Same here......I always correct them on that one those. Fish can be caught.....deer not so much!
