iMBy,-- Msaff tNE'Way'! TEN-The Heppner GaieUe-Times. Heppner, Oregon, Thursday, June II. 1981 1 Deer, elk seasons set- The Fish and Wildlife Com mission made adjustments in permit numbers and open areas to satisfy varying groups of landowners and hunters after public hearings recently. But in most particulars the commission adopted deer and elk hunting regulations for 19R1 as propos ed by its staff. In addition the commission announced intent to consider limited entry for all bull elk hunting beginning in 19R2. Under such a plan a maxi mum number of permits would be set for each manage ment unit in the state with elk hunting. Public work sessions for discussing the concept and developing specific details will be scheduled late . this summer and fall. Deer hunters will have a 32-day general season begin ning October 3 in western Oregon for bucks with forked antlers or better. This in cludes five days of either sex hunting in northwest Oregon, controlled hunt permits for antlerless deer in southwest Oregon, an extended Wil lamette Unit hunt, and a High Cascades buck hunt were all adopted. On the east side the general season will also begin October 3 and run 12 days in all but seven management units where buck or fawn survival is lower than desired. In those units the season will run nine days. The forked horn rule has been dropped on the east side and bucks with spike antlers or better will be legal. The Steens four-point limit ed entry hunt will be continued with 1.3O0 tags authorized and the Trout Creek Mountains area of the Whitehorse Unit will be restricted to 200 permit holders who will be able to take any buck with a spike antler or better. The commis sion is looking at this hunt as an experiment in providing a high quality hunt through controlling hunter numbers without imposing restrictive antler point regulations. Controlled unit and agriculture-damage permits for deer will total 11.250 in western Oregon and 19.395 in eastern Oregon. A split Roosevelt elk season for spike bulls or better was set with the first period November 14-17 and the second running November 21-27. Hunters will choose one period or the other when they purchase their tag. Limited entry and a three point regulation was dropped in Chetco and Dixon units. General season dates will apply in Saddle Mountain and Tioga units with 3.500 tags authorized in each Saddle Mountain hunt and 3.000 tags for each hunt in the Tioga Unit. Rocky Mountain bull elk season will run October 31 thViugh Nover ber 4 and November 7-iy for spikes or better. Chesni anus Unit will have a sing bull season October 31 th "jugh November 8 for spikes oi ibetter with 2.500 tags authorised. Snake River Unit will stay with a three point antler rule with 550 permits authorized for each of two seasons. Antlerless elk permits in management unit or damage hunts total 2.195 in western Oregon and 16.725 in eastern Oregon. Muzzleloader enthusiasts will have deer hunts similar to last year and. in addition, th commission authorized a muz zleloader elk hunt with 20 tags dsss cf '64 We have decided to wait for our reunion and not in a portion of Tioen Unit in southwest Oregon A rule change was also adopted which permits any muzzle loader .50 caliber or larger to be used in Oregon for elk hunting. In the past muwle loader hunters were required to follow a rule which specif ied minimum foot pounds of energy. It was a difficult rule for both hunters and enforce ment officers since there is a great deal of variation in the loads used in black -powder rifles and no standard ballis tics tables to eo by. Hownunting seasons tor deer and elk will be similar to last year with an earlv statewide hunt for ImIIi species and later hunts for deer or elk in specific areas Regulations for silver Erav squirrel huntinc. handgun huntine for hig gnme. and tag sale cutoff dates for hig eame are similar to last year.
