I was wrong. Misread a section of the handbook that only pertained to Zone 3. The rule made to much sense to make it state wide I guess.....lol

[SDPROV]

Don't think the whole state is that way is it? Thought it was just in the 300 area you couldn't party hunt for bucks? Nice deer!

[ozzie]

I was wrong

[TMT]

It's only for 300 that you can not cross tag a buck.

You can still party hunt for bucks every where else in the state.

Nice deer Elwood. A year to remember for you.

Don't want to clog the picture sight but i was going by this! I think the rest of the state stayed the same.

300-series deer seasons

Several new regulations are being implemented in all 300-series deer areas. These regulations are in effect for the archery, 3A and 3B firearms, and muzzleloader seasons. The regulations:

Institute a four-point to one side antler point restriction. Only bucks that have at least one four-point antler can be legally harvested. This regulation will be in place during all seasons (archery, 3A, 3B, muzzleloader). Youth hunters age 10 - 17 do not have to comply with the regulation; they can continue to take any antlered buck. However, adults cannot take an antlered deer for a youth hunter.

Prohibit buck cross-tagging. In all 300 series deer areas, hunters cannot tag antlered bucks for each other. Hunters can still take and tag antlerless deer for each other.

Lengthen the 3A season to nine days. The 3A season will be from Nov. 6-14.

Go to page 77 of the regulations.

Clearly states the no buck cross tagging is for:

SPECIAL REGULATIONS IN 300-SERIES DEER AREAS

ONLY (338 – 349)

Here's my doe on opening day, hunting with my grand-daughter, who's in her first year. She almost had one yesterday but as she was ready to pull the trigger, someone else shot close to her and spooked her deer. She was a little bummed.

Here's my cousin, Jason Clusiau, who bagged this beautiful 13 pointer yesterday. Shot part of the rack off too but that will be fixed up by the taxidermist.

My son's first deer! He has put more than a few hours on stand for the last couple years! He shot this nice doe at 3pm Saturday. She came in behind us, walked to our left and presented broadside. I told him to shoot, but he told me a tree was in her vitals(I was in a stand right next to him). She hadn't seen us yet, so he waited a few seconds. Of course, she turned straight towards us and busted us from 15 yards! I told him to shoot. He made a fantastic shot with my .308 through the heart and exiting the ribs. We talked after about the shot and how I would not have normally taken that shot, but since this is the first deer he has seen on firearms opener in two years, I would make an exception. I am very proud of him.

Grunted this 9 pointer in at 345 on Saturday. He was a beast weighing 240 pounds field dressed and his neck was 34" around!
