I have looked at outdooralabama, in the hunting and fishing digest on the forestry website...is buckshot permitted on National Forest Land? I know slug only on WMA's but I cannot find anything for National Forest.

Thanks!

Can you use buckshot for deer?
Yes in the General Forest
No in the WMA (Public Hunting Lands Booklet pg. xi under Means and Methods)

This is off a .pdf I found.

Hi Ryan,

Thanks for the info, however that is for the state of Texas. I just called the Wildlife and Fisheries division and they said NO BUCKSHOT on public land in Alabama.

Do I misunderstand you? Rifles are permitted.

You have confused "dog hunting for deer" season with a restriction on the use of buckshot during other gun deer season dates.
