and town hall meetings, the
Fish and Wildlife Commission
adopted deer and elk seasons
for WHO.
Although staff recommen

number of changes in
response to public and land

were the following.
-Retained the first come,
first served system for issuing

and 4 point buck deer seasons.
-Retained forked-horn buck
rule in eastern Oregon mule

Mule deer hunters in east
ern Oregon will have a 12-day

Hunters who select one of
these tags will not be eligible
to hunt deer elsewhere during

Permits of 16.670 antlerless

various management unit or
damage control hunts. They
would be issued as $5 tags that
could be applied for independ
ently of a general season buck
tag and could entitle the
hunter to a second deer.
