question on managed areas and bonus permits

[Moving2thecountry]

I got a doe in a managed area.  Am I now limited to bucks if I hunt that area?  (Not a problem, I'm more interested in getting a buck anyway, now).  Also, if you get a bonus permit (not lottery) for one managed area, can you use it in another managed area? 

[StevenHuston]

are you using bow?

[Ryan]

If you got a bonus permit the first permit should be for either sex.  The only restriction in those areas is that the bonus permit has to be antlerless.

[kenhuntin]

It depends if you used your regular license to tag the deer. A bonus tag is antlerless only. Managed areas are buck or doe with regular license.You may take another antlerless deer (under 3"antlers) with a bonus tag.

Very true Ken, your "primary" tag is what you can use for buck/doe (in most areas), and your bonus is only for antlerless. If you tagged it with your primary tag you can only shoot a doe and tag it with your bonus permit.

As for tagging deer in another area with your bonus tag, not sure on that one. I would assume your primary tag you bought was for a certain zone along with your bonus tag, and usually you would have to hunt within those boundaries (down in the south we have to). I am a little unsure on this, so I would ask a CO.

A bonus tag is good for all managed or intensive harvest areas and all seasons, bow firearm or muzzle.except that special 300 something area.

If you are hunting in managed you can take two deer.Your bonus is good for one doe only.The License is good for buck or doe. you can hunt in all zone but keep in mine that if you move to a lottery area you can only take a buck with that license.You can all so move to a zone that is intensive and buy up the three more bonus that three more does.You can only hunt the zone if they are open. You can't shot two in managed area with a gun and then come back a take two more with a bow. If you are in the managed area a go with a gun and shot a doe and gun is now close you can buy a bow license and take one more buck or doe but if you take a buck with a gun and you buy a bow license you can not take a buck. You can only a doe.You can only take one buck a year.
That what happen to that guy with that big 8 point he had shot two deer one doe and one buck with a gun and buy a bow license and shot the 8 point buck you can't shot more then one buck a year.

[HUNTER2]

You can shoot more than 1 buck a year. If you are party hunting and someone else doesn't mind if you shoot their buck for them.

I new some one was going to be smart about that.  I just did not know who.  Hunter2,  yes you can do that  But you can't tag two buck with your tags!    in your name you can tag one buck in gun  or bow  or muzzleloader  in Minnesota.

well in sake of arguement, yes you can tag two bucks with your own tags, just one has to be shorter than three inch antlers.
but then we already knew this.
 

[HUNTER2]

Good one Jiggle.

[wildlifeminnesota]

I new that was coming. But by law that is not a a buck and   if you do not know that then you should not be hunting.   Yes Buck less then tree inc are Classified as a doe.   and you can use your bones tags on them.

The point I was making. Some people think if you by a gun tag   and take a Legal  buck   and go an buy a bow tag   you can take another Legal buck   They will get in some big Probing  with the CO   but then we already knew this and you are trying to be a smart   Now I will get back to     for some more big

by deffinition that is a buck. it is not a legal buck. it is certainly not a doe. if you do not know that then maybe you shouldn't be hunting
