    No limit on number... But your hunting buddies will likely start calling you "Rambo", and the like

    Why on earth would you carry two rifles while hunting?? Carry one....either one, but don't carry two.

    no restriction that I know of with number of guns but you can't carry a rifle and a bow at the same time
    The first vehicles normally on the scene of a crime are ambulances and police cruisers. If you are armed you have a chance to decide who gets transported in which vehicle, if you are not armed then that decision is made for you.

    Be prepared, because someone else already is and no one knows their intent except them.

    I do not know of any such restriction during regular (gun) season. Can you point me to it?

    Deer - Archery Seasons: Long, recurve and compound bows, and
    crossbows, and broadheads of cutting edge design. The bolt must
    be equipped with a broadhead not more than three inches long and
    at least 7/8 inches wide, with at least two cutting edges on the same
    plane throughout the length of the cutting surface. Magnifying
    scopes and sights such as red dot on crossbows can be used. Persons
    hunting deer in the archery seasons may not possess a firearm,
    except those individuals who have a License to Carry Firearms
    permit, and then only those firearms authorized by the permit (most
    sporting arms are not authorized). Muzzleloading firearms can also
    be carried by bowhunters during any muzzleloading season, providing
    the hunter has an archery license and a muzzleloader license
    and meets the fluorescent orange requirements of the muzzleloader
    season.


    I meant during archery season, not rifle season
