IMPORTANT ON-LINE ANTLERLESS DEER PERMIT SALE UPDATE October 11, 2006 --- Due to technical problems which caused a shutdown of many Massachusetts state agency internet operations on Tuesday, October 10, sportsmen and women holding hunting licenses purchased through MassOutdoors, the state's on-line license sales system, found themselves "locked out" of the on-line antlerless deer permit sales. These on-line license holders will have another opportunity to purchase permits and use them for the upcoming archery deer season beginning next Monday, October 16.
Antlerless deer permits for zones 9, 10, 11, 13 and 14, which were specifically allocated for on-line license buyers, will go on special sale over the counter on Thursday morning beginning at 8 AM on October 12. These permits will be available only to individuals holding licenses purchased on-line prior to Oct 10th. Permits will be available at Fisheries & Wildlife District offices in Acton, Myles Standish State Forest, Buzzards Bay, West Boylston, Belchertown, Pittsfield and at the Division's Field Headquarters in Westborough.
Hunters may purchase 1 permit/zone/day until quotas are reached. To purchase a permit, hunters must present their online 2006 hunting or sporting license and the $5.00 fee. A person may take other hunters' on-line license(s) and purchase permits for them.
Checks made out to "Deer Permit" or cash only will be accepted. Credit cards are not accepted at the offices. As in the past, permits will be issued on a first come, first served basis.
On-line permit sales system will resume operations October 13th for selling permits in zones 10, 11, 13 and 14.
