As in the past, these hunters must give up their antlerless license applications in order to get the stamp. + Hunters with a muzzleloader license may harvest either a buck or a doe in any Pennsylvania eounty during the flintlock sea- son, which runs from December 27 to January 18, 1994. Although two more weeks have been added to the 1993 archery season, scheduled to begin Octo- ber 2 and end November 13, hunters won't have their choice of taking either adoe orabuck, asin previous years. » Hunters wishing to harvest an antlerless deer (doe) will now need a valid antlerlesss deer license and may only harvest a doe in the county for which the license is ssued. . The antlerless license can also e used during the regular antler- ss (doe) season. #. Archers without doe licenses may only harvest antlered deer % SCENERY ~~ Ro pee Ta NEW LICENSE DATES Changes in the hunting laws have resulted in these new deadlines for hunters to pur- chase hunting licenses: e Saturday, July 31: Deadline for purchase of a flintlock muz- zleloader stamp. * Monday, August 2: The first day that county treasurers will accept antlerless deer (doe) li- censes, now needed by arch- ery hunters who wish to har- vest a doe. e Monday, August 23: The first day that county treasur- ers will accept bonus antler- less licenses, in counties with leftover antlerless licenses.
