[QUOTE="AlongCameJones, post: 3590343, member: 47875"] I mean most of the Ok WMA's and a couple of OLAP's I've looked at so far (at least in the SW or SE) are any combination of one or more of the following: -closed to regular gun seasons altogether, no rifles period -allow shotguns but no rifles -are closed to holiday antler-less gun seasons, no female deer with rifles for 14 days out of total deer season -have short (nine-day) gun seasons, very few rifle days -allow guns but not for antler-less harvest, no female deer will die by bullets The best I could see so far are a couple of WMA's that allow a hunter to take a doe (or any-sex deer) with a rifle during a short 9-day window of regular gun season AND an antler-less deer (doe) during a longer 14-day window of the holiday antler-less gun season. I could even open up some more Ok deer/doe possibilities for myself by buying a slug barrel for my Mossberg 500 since some OLAPs allow shotguns but no rifles. Muzzle-loading and archery is something I definitely won't get into. Many public areas have restrictions to some degree on weapon types, ammo types, hunter age bracket and/or deer sex. There are some youth-only (oh, those bratty punk-arse kids!!) seasons. Older hunters get robbed by the system here. I don't mind special seasons for seniors, however, or special vehicle access privileges for disabled hunters. There maybe plenty of doe to hunt on public lands but you may need a bow or muzzle-loader to do it depending on the place and time of year during deer season. [/QUOTE]
