Undoubtedly, most hunters will choose buck deer, with this general season e x t e n d in g through Oct. 23 east of the Cascades and through Oct. 30 on the west slda. Legal bag lim it Is one buck deer with visible antlers east of the moun tains, and one buck deer with at least a forked antler west of the mountains. We don't know how many deer hunters w ill be In the field this season. Last year more than 277,000 deer tags were Issued, and If the annual trend of past years continues, the number w ill be Increased by about 5% this coming season. So, If you find your favorite h u n t in g area a little more crowded than usual, you w ill know you are competing against several thousand more hunters than you did a year ago. For the shotgun enthusiast, Oct. 1 means chukar and Hun garian partridge, feathered bombshells of the rim rocks, sage and cheatgrass ranges.
