Tomorrow is opening day for deer. I got licenses for Miss MN and I yesterday. We both got regular resident firearm licenses, which includes a permit for tagging a deer. I also bought a bonus permit because I'd like to shoot two this year. My question is, what gender deer can I legally kill with these tags? Is it antlerless only for both tags? I know anterless is a doe or buck with 3" or less antlers. I don't have buck fever, and I'm perfectly happy shooting a couple good does, but what if a big wall-hanger buck happens to walk in? Will either of my tags allow me to kill it legally? I've read every page of the rule booklet and I can't figure out how a person goes about tagging a grown buck. I want to know if my tags are anterless-only or if I can drop a buck. If not, do I need to buy a buck permit, even though I don't see anything about buck permit. Oh yeah, this is in MN, in area 100. I'd appreciate you guys clearing this up for me. Happy hunting and be safe!
