The first bow season also opens Oct. 1 and continues until Dec. 1 with second season lasting from Dec. 18 to Jan. 18. Early muzzleloader season lasts for just over a week from Oct 14 to Oct. 22. Late muzzleloader is much longer from Dec. 18 to Jan. 10. Shotgun season opens Dec. 2 and runs to Dec. 6. After a short break, second season starts Dec. 9 and lasts until Dec. 17.
