Hunters who purchase a leftover permit will lose any preference points they may have accumulated for next year's drawing. Applicants who were successful in the nonresident drawing or the resident Any Deer permit drawing may not purchase a leftover permit. No hunter may purchase more than one permit that allows the take of
an antlered deer. An antlered deer permit is required before purchasing a Whitetail Antlerless Only Deer game tag.
