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.
Printed regulations and con
trolled hunt application cards
will he mailed to license
agents throughout the state
and should he available after
mid-June,
A chnnrr in enntrollod hunt
.implication procedure Mill
begin with the l!W! deer and
elk seasons. The hunter will
huv his Application card's t
from a nenrhv license iiBent
and this will take the place of
the proeessine fee which
formerlv had to he sent
Ihrnuuh the mail with the
application
In another chnnue. appli
cants who are successful in
the drawing will be sent a
permit and instructed to huv
their controlled hunt tag from
a local license aeent rather
than .sending money to the
department and receiving
tags by return mail.
There are other chances in
procedure and hunters lire
urged to pick ui a eopv ( the
printed remilations and rend
them carelullv before applv
ini! for nnv controlled hunts
and helore purchasing deer nr
elk (iiL'S. Those elk hunters
who plan t anplv for a
controlled hunt this vear
should not huv their elk Ijil"
until they know whether nr not
they have been successful in
the controlled hunt drawing.
The department will begin
accepting applications for
controlled hunts in which a
drawing is involved after .lime
IS, and the drawing deadline Is
