Big day on Sunday August 1st. for moose, deer, and elk hunters:
- second chance moose results
- antlerless deer draw results
- submissions for controlled hunt opens
- elk draw results
Tags are available to print starting on August 17th.
We are turning the corner on summer!
Although it's almost a sure thing in my WMU, I still like the anticipation of the antlerless result.
I find myself getting very motivated to shoot more, scout more, and becoming more excited for Fall.
Yes, looking forward to it..
Successful 2nd time round but 2nd choice. An archery cow tag not too far from home. Not an overly useful tag for bow hunting but gives us a reason to go without using any points. Back in next year for that bull tag…..

:sad: No tag.
Good to go for an anterless tag in 68b.

I'm entering my 5th fall season as a hunter, and just found out this morning that I have now gone 0 for 5 in the antlerless tag draw. Every year, the WMUs that I apply for have 40-70% published odds from the previous season. Anyone else riding a cold streak? Is there anything else going on here than pure bad luck?
I was up until 5 minutes ago, I had been seven years w/o for a antlerless tag in WMU 60, just checked both me and my son got one each.Quote:

Antlerless for me in 36. 2nd year in a row, after 5-6 yrs. without.
Yes no Moose tag but did get antlerless in 08.Quote:

Got my doe tag in 60 this year....
No bull tag or antlerless for WMU 49. Did get an antlerless for WMU 93 though
No moose for 48 and no antlerless for 48 or 47
I tried for moose at my cottage (Lanark Highlands) in 63a, but stuck with 64a for deer, since the chances were better there.Quote:

Got my third choice on the second draw for moose, and got my controlled hunt application done.
Got three antlerless tags for 65. My son my buddy and myself.
Will also be hunting with crossbows this year.
We went 3 out of 9 for antlerless tags, wmu 49
WMU 60 antler less here too,
Moose we got some calf tags up north, wont be claiming them.
My brother and I finally scored a doe tag each for 68A after being unsuccessful for almost a decade. That gives us 2/6 for the gang!
2nd year I a row I've managed to pull a doe tag for 63a.
My son and I got drawn for antlerless tags (usually 100% in our main MWU) plus purchased an extra tag (different WMU but have access to a farm there) so we are good for the season. :)
Good luck everyone, be safe
first time applying antler less for 41 was unsuccessful
Successful antlerless tag in 64A - had non past two years so I'm pleased.
6 for 6 in 82a plus we each have an additional antlerless bows only for 82a so in theory up to 12 antlerless. Basically been that way in 82a for a bunch of years now. We hunt about 300 acres so we never actually fill 12 tags but do usually take 3 or 4 bucks plus 1 to 3 does depending on what the cameras show for numbers. We just like to keep our options open and this allows any of us to head up solo in bow season whenever we feel like it.
Jesus lol !Quote:

Question from this newb hunter, am I able to hunt an antlered deer (buck) in the resident open season if I buy a deer tag after the August 31 deadline?
Short answer, yes....Quote:

A caveat to this is that some Units in southern Ontario limit the number of hunters, so you need a validation through the controlled hunt draw. To hunt antlerless deer, you need an antlerless tag obtained through the antlerless draw, or purchase an additional game seal (for antlerless deer) valid for specific Units that have them.
There are no stupid questions, so ask away if you have any more.
Thanks for the quick responses. I'm doing my planning work for next year (not hunting this fall), as I read into the regulations a bit more anything with antlers less than 7.5cm is considered "antlerless" so as you said better to apply for the hunt.
