FWC modifies deer hunting dates

The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission passed new rules last week that will modify season dates for deer hunting on private property beginning with the 2010-2011 season. The season date changes are designed to better align the deer hunting seasons with the rut.

Changes to season dates in Northwest Florida push opening day of archery season back one week. The first phase of muzzleloading gun season will have four additional days and move from November to December, where it will fill a gap that was previously closed to deer hunting in that zone.

As a result, hunters in North Florida will have continuous deer hunting opportunities from the beginning of archery through the last phase of muzzleloading gun season, and total deer hunting days have been increased from 123 to 128.
