2009 DEER SEASON

MassWildlife breaks the 2009 Deer Season into 3 categories:

1. Archery
2. Shotgun (Shotgun, Muzzleloader and Archery)
3. Primitive Firearm (Muzzleloader and Archery )

  • Massachusetts strictly states that hunters cannot attempt to harvest deer unless they are at least 500 feet from the nearest occupied dwelling without proper authorization.
  • In addition, they must also be at least 150 feet from any public road or highway.
  • Hunting hours are from ½ hour before sunrise to ½ hour after sunset.

Because of the recent overpopulation of deer in our area, MassWildlife also has allowed hunters to not only take 2 bucks (mature male deer), but have made available significant numbers of antlerless deer (female or adolescent male deer with antlers of 3" or less) permits.

This essentially allows hunters to take a large number of deer per season as long as they do not take more than 2 deer per day and have tags or permits to do so.

  1. The Archery Season begins on October 12, 2009 and runs through November 21, 2009.
  2. The Shotgun Season begins on November 30, 2009 and runs through December 12, 2009.
  3. The Muzzleloader Season begins on December 14, 2009 and runs through December 31, 2009.
  4. Hunting on Sundays is not permitted.
