Due to high quality habitat, the deer herd on Lake George is in very good condition. When compared to other areas, buck quality is above average, although the antlerless harvest should be more intense. Deer hunting is allowed with archery, primitive weapons or modern guns depending on season. Bucks are not eligible for harvest unless they meet the antler criteria specific to Lake George. This rule has been in place for several years; therefore, a few higher-quality deer should be available for harvest.
