P.S. To answer dakids question, I hunt in the Northern half for MN. I don't give out much info about where I hunt, people like whiteoakbuck tend to steal those spots. No respect for the guys who put in the hard work scouting only to have their stand stolen because it's "public" land!


I'm Wile E Coyote, and yes, I found Waldo!

   I'm sure that sentence is very clear to you as are the DNR regs but I would need some clarification on what your are getting at here.

Sorry. I assumed this was more for firearm season. I pretty much gave up on gun hunting back in the 90's when one of the guys I hunted with would spend the day before opener walking around the woods where we hunted. (I'm sure you can guess we had a lot of tag sandwiches) I have been pretty much just archery since. I have been hunting near Cambridge this year. It's the first year for me in this particular spot. It's ok, but I have seen almost no fawns this year which kind of concerns me. Especially with seeing coyotes on my trail camera. I plan to do a little coyote hunting after I get my deer or after archery season.

That there is what I like to call sarcasm, somewhat. It's a dig on "those"
 people (like how I didn't personally name anyone?) who hunt public land and get pissed off when someone comes thru "their hunting spot" and it "ruined their season. So, with that being said, lets get back on topic so nobodies feeling get hurt anymore!

I'm Wile E Coyote and... Я живу в фургоне вниз по реке

I'll be hunting where I give one warning shot to get them running.  I like to give the deer a fair chance.

         Hunters reminded that bonus permit use limited this season

  DNR News Release (Released October 27, 2014)
 

Hunters in most of the state are not allowed to use bonus permits to take antlerless deer during the 2014 season, according to the Minnesota Department of Natural Resources.   

“Bonus permits are only allowed in seven of 129 deer permit areas this year,” said Maj. Greg Salo, DNR Enforcement Division operations manager. “You cannot use a bonus permit to tag a deer if it was harvested outside of these seven areas.” Salo added that bonus permits are also allowed in some special hunts and encouraged hunters to review the regulations as described in the 2014 regulations synopsis.

Permit areas that allow use of bonus permits in 2014 are:
◾Intensive deer areas 182, 346 and 349.
◾Managed deer areas 114, 287 and 343.
◾The metro deer area 601.

By design, more deer will be off limits this year as a one-deer bag limit rules most of the state and opportunities to take more than one deer are few and far between. The DNR implemented these regulations to help increase Minnesota’s deer population.

Bonus antlerless permits are different than antlerless permits that can be used in lottery deer areas. In lottery areas, bonus permits are not allowed; however, hunters had until Sept. 4 to apply for a limited number of antlerless permits for these lottery areas, where the bag limit is one.

Hunters continue to have the option of harvesting one deer in a bucks-only, lottery or hunter choice area, and also using a bonus permit in an intensive or managed area, the metro area 601, or some special hunts. The bag limit in managed deer areas is two; the bag limit in intensive areas is five; and hunters in the metro permit area 601 can take an unlimited number of antlerless deer. But regardless of area or license type, an individual hunter can only take one buck per year.

For more information on deer hunting and to see a permit area map, see the website.

Still doesn't answer my question. The rule for hunters choice as I read it lists the areas you cannot hunt if you harvest a deer in either of those areas but says nothing about harvested deer from the metro or intensive areas prior to hunting the hunters choice lottery or bucks only areas. Still waiting for CO's  to return my call.

This is a very difficult topic here for everyone to get figured out. Everyone for the most part is trying their best to help out with the correct answers or at least what they think is correct.

This thread kind of reminds me of the old "Who's On First" as described below.

  Cody you can no longer tag a deer unless you get a bonus tag from 601.

   Hunters continue to have the option of harvesting one deer in a bucks-only, lottery or hunter choice area, and also using a bonus permit in an intensive or managed area, the metro area 601, or some special hunts.

Still party hunting. So in the end it doesn't matter. Still waiting for my call to be returned from the CO.

I always tell my brothers if you fill my buck tag opening weekend your mounting it.  so it better be worth it.  I like the party hunting option. think for those still filling a freezer and not a wall it makes sense.  heck I haven't had a deer in the freezer in 2 seasons.. this one has to be my turn.
