The COVID-19 pandemic has not affected hunting regulations, said Banbury. In 2019, Ohio hunters harvested 63,567 deer during the weeklong deer-gun season, as well as an additional 13,703 deer during the two-day bonus weekend. Hunters in Coshocton, Licking and Tuscarawas counties are allowed the use of two either sex permits and one deer management permit for the three-deer count, while deer management permits are not valid in Morgan, Guernsey and Noble counties. Muskingum and Perry counties have a two-bag limit, while Coshocton, Licking, Tuscarawas, Morgan, Guernsey, and Noble allow a three-deer limit. The statewide limit is six deer, and only one can be antlered. 25 of archery season, Coshocton has seen the most deer harvested with 2,689 and Muskingum was seventh with 1,806.Ĭoshocton County also led the state in total deer harvested in 2019 with 6,715 and Muskingum was fourth with 4,929. Banbury said youth accounted for roughly 5,795 deer across the state, which was above the three-year average.Īccording to ODNR, the top 10 counties for deer harvested during the youth season included Coshocton (239) Holmes (223) Tuscarawas (206) Muskingum (172) Knox (168) Guernsey (148) Harrison (133) Washington (121) Morgan (118) and Ross (118). There was an increase in deer harvested during youth weekend, which was Nov. That seems to be bringing people back because they can be outdoors, away from others and they also get to bring something home to the table."
"There are few activities where people can be away from others, and hunting is naturally a socially-distant activity. "We've seen a lot of participation in all seasons and animals," Banbury said.
