WOW! 2 bucks? Lucky!!!! 3 deer county in NW OH and I can only take one antlered deer statewide.
As it turns out this thread helped a fellow hunter. I had read a comment saying you could take 5 bucks in Ohio. I was fairly certain that we were a 1 Buck state regardless of the zone you live in. I checked the regulations and was able to PM the member the section from the ODNR rules stating that one buck can be harvested. Our laws are weird in that in certain zones you can buy an antlerless permit whereas in other zones all you can buy are either sex permits. The either sex permit can be used to harvest one buck where the remaining can only be used for antlerless deer. It always helps to make sure you check the hunting regulations within your state to make sure you're complying. I make sure to check every year because it seems like they change the rules for the number of deer you can take within a given zone around here.
