Sweet. Won the draw for a D14 tag for one my hunts, so I'm pretty stoked myself. My 2nd deer tag is for D11.

B zone here I come!
Oh wait. That's not usually one that people cheer about is it?

I loved hunting the B zone back twenty years ago.

I lived most of my life there. Parents are still there so I usually pick up a tag.

I drew a coveted A zone tag! Struck out on everything else.
What years? I grew up in Trinity. Still hunt up there a lot, have a B tag for this year. And of course lots of bears to hunt! Wish we could get more than one tag until the quota is filled.

Nice, I pulled a G13 this year as well. I'll be picking up a buck tag as well if there are leftovers. Do you live in San Diego?

South Orange County actually, you? Only 201 D16 tags leftover as of yesterday BTW so I'd get on that!

Yea I just purchased it actually, saw it was barely 200. I live in Julian. Moved out there in october to get closer to the woods. and hunting grounds. good luck, i know that doe tag is as good as meat in the freezer, so im pretty stoked.
I'm looking at a D16 buck tag too. It says archery and general. Has it always been like that? I'm in N. Orange county. My parents live in Fallbrook. I've scouted and E-scouted quite a bit but did not have the chance to go last year due to work obligations. Anyone want to set up a scouting trip?

D16 has a rifle season for bucks. and the AO tags will work as well, but for bucks only. a22 is specific to d16 but is either sex. All tags are limited except the AO, g13 gives 300, a22 is 1000, and rifle d16 is 3000... I have no idea about muzzeloader though.

Some zones have an archery only tag. Example C zones as well as X zones have an archery only tag that is typically filled in the drawing. You cannot hunt the rifle season if you have an archery tag for an X zone. Zones like A, B and the D zones issue a general tag that allows you to hunt with archery equipment in the early archery season for that zone. During the "rifle season" for that zone you are allowed to use any legal method of take meaning archery, muzzleloader, pistol, crossbow and rifle. Of course each method of take has requirements for the weapon you use. Some zones could have requirements I may not be aware of since I don't research zones I don't plan to hunt. If the book is confusing you can always contact fish and wildlife for a clarification.
Sounds like D16 is just like the zone I hunt the most, D3-5. I can archery hunt the early archery season (archery equipment only) then if I still have an unfilled tag I can use my rifle during the general or rifle season.
Has it always been like that? Not really but it has been like that for a long long time. When I first started hunting the state only had 2 tags, A and B. You hunted with a bow anywhere the archery season was open then a rifle anywhere there was an open deer season that you had a tag for. A was the coast only and B was good in any part of the state that had a general season.
