COLUMBUS, Ohio — Hunters checked 13,614 white-tailed deer on Monday, Nov. 26, the opening day of Ohio’s run deer hunting season, according to the Ohio DNR. That’s down from 22,366 on last year’s opening day, according to DNR numbers.
Ohio’s gun deer season remains open through Sunday, Dec. 2. Two additional days of deer-gun season (Saturday, Dec. 15, and Sunday, Dec. 16) have been added to increase the opportunity for people to hunt with firearms, the DNR said in a news release Tuesday, Nov. 27 announcing the first-day totals.
