There may be parts of the state that has an earlier season but the unit i live in season starts October 10th and lasts until December 1st. Everyone in our family gets a liscence and whitetail tag. Where i hunt i have not seen another hunter in the 14 years.... I do not go for elk because in the area where they hang out too many hunters show up.
I always find the time to get out during the season. This year i will have plenty of time and looking forward to it...
