Private Property Hunting
Where can I find laws relating to hunting private property?
Specifically I'm trying to find out if you own hunting land, are you permitted to take more than just your annual buck?

Re: Private Property Hunting
The laws for hunting private property, yours or anyone else's are the same as hunting State Game Land or other public property.
Farmers and the like can do the whole red tag thing, but that's outside of your question, IMO.Last edited by keystoneman 85; November 15th, 2010 at 09:09 PM.

Re: Private Property Hunting
That's a shame. Anyone know if that is different in VA?
What's red tag? Is that the extra tags to prevent crop damage?

Re: Private Property Hunting
I'm not sure about VA. But in PA, game laws apply statewide regardless of who owns the land. You can only take what you have tags & licenses to take.
"Red Tags" are now DMAP tags for crop and forest damage. Landowners(link) and other state agencies(link) apply for them, then they can distribute them to hunters(or keep them for themselves).

Re: Private Property Hunting
If I read that right, a landowner that has uncultivated land can get 1 coupon per 50 acres of land.
So if I own 100 acres of uncultivated land I could possibly take my regular buck plus 2 more DMAP bucks?

Re: Private Property Hunting
It's a shame the state protects game resources?
While game inhabits private property, it is not part of the private property. It is a state controlled resource. Just like a stream. If it's on /through your private property, you can control access to it but you can't divert it to consume yourself 100%, or pollute it with your used motor oil.
Some (few) states have more exceptions than others, in regards to landowner exceptions or preferences, but I know of none that do not control game on private property.
If you qualify and they approve the tags, yes._________________________________________

Re: Private Property Hunting
No... I agree with protecting resources and I understand your point.
I'm considering purchasing some land and I want to know what I can and can't do. Having the ability to harvest a second buck would be a great thing IMO.
Just trying to do some research.

Re: Private Property Hunting
DMAP tags are for antlerless ONLY. Red Tag is a different program and is antlerless ONLY.
The short answer is in Pa. you get ONE and ONLY ONE buck each year.
