S.C. deer hunters interested in limit on bucks, tagging

With a total attendance of nearly 2,000, the meetings were the most heavily attended public meetings ever held by DNR’s Wildlife Section. This speaks highly of South Carolina’s deer hunters, because it shows that they are genuinely interested in the state’s white-tailed deer resource. A total of 12 meetings were held, with three being at locations in the piedmont and the remaining nine in the coastal plain.
