Ohio deer hunters have two additional days for deer-gun season

COLUMBUS — Ohio’s 2015 deer-gun season continues Dec. 28-29, according to the Ohio Department of Natural Resources.

During the Dec. 28-29 firearm season, all hunters (except waterfowl hunters) must wear a vest, coat, jacket or coveralls that are either solid hunter orange or camouflage hunter orange. A hunter orange hat or cap is a great safety addition, but does not satisfy legal requirements.

Shotguns and straight-walled cartridge rifles in approved calibers cannot have more than three shells.

Hunting hours are 30 minutes before sunrise to 30 minutes past sunset for all deer seasons.

Additional details about deer-hunting rules are contained in the 2015-2016 Ohio Hunting Regulations, available where licenses are sold, or at wildohio.gov.
