For those of us who need plenty of warning, the Ontario Antlerless Deer Draw deadline is July 31, 2008. The phone number to call (Ontario MNR Draw Phone Line) is 1-800-288-1155. A touch tone phone is required.
Pat – Thanks for your comment. The easy answer is No. It may be the only answer based on my knowledge of the regulations.
This may be an option for you. It is my understanding that if you are hunting with a group of hunters and some of them have a valid antlerless deer tag (and you have a a valid antlered deer tag), you can shoot an antlerless deer. This would ‘use up’ the other person’s antlerless tag. Be sure to read the 2008 hunting regulations regarding group hunting to be sure of the details and requirements for group hunting.

This is my first year as a hunter and I missed the date for the draw deadline, is there anything at I can do to get in on it?
