Antlerless Deer Tags No Longer Valid in New Game Zone One

The use of individual antlerless deer tags has been eliminated in the new Game Zone One. Game zone consolidation legislation that became law on July 1 reduced the size of Game Zone One in Oconee, Pickens and Greenville counties, a move requested by the S.C. Department of Natural Resources to reduce the antlerless deer harvest in the upper portion of Game Zone One while increasing deer hunting opportunities in the lower portion of the old game zone.
