First season has no deer tag options. A lot of out of state people I know wanted every chance they could get when they came and purposely hunted 2nd season because they could have a deer tag too. Pushing the seasons later in the year will encourage out-of-staters to apply for earlier season because of weather IMO. If you have to drive here from PA through snow storms towing a trailer or setting up camp in 18" of snow could, a later season could be a deal breaker. I do think the either sex tags will be sought after. First season is still 5 days, which isn't appealing if you are coming from out of state. Just not sure what will happen.
