I predict this Saturday will see a top 3 opening day harvest number once the records are released for actual harvest dates. This weather swing is insane....similar to how that one year (cannot remember) when it was just abysmal storms and everything many of us predicted one of the worst...

Eliminating crossbows and archery equipment...it would seem harvesting for firearms is up as I suspected when I saw the weather forecast...present harvest of 31,120 as of 11/14/2022 at 7AM vs same time last year of 28,412.
Archery harvests (bow and arrow or crossbow) presently at 27,587 (this year) vs 27,686 (last year)
Firearms harvests up, archery essentially same (99 fewer).

There is a difference in how many days gun season is in from last year… but yes there is a slight increase

There is a difference in how many days gun season is in from last year… but yes there is a slight increase Some on the internet are predicting a big downswing in harvest because of lowered bonus antlerless limits, but the reductions will have a minimal effect. They do not understand that majority of hunter's do not kill more than 1 or 2 deer annually, and hunter's that do, can "IF" utilize regular licenses available still harvest up to 4 deer without bonus tags. Weather usually has biggest effect's on total, youth season was great, archery good till last week, and so far, firearms has been really good. I would be shocked at this time to see a lower harvest as this coming weekend looks perfect for hunter's.
