Maryland’s muzzleloader deer season begins again on December 21 and runs through January first. Hunters can use muzzle-loading firearms to harvest white-tailed and sika deer during this time. Antler-point restrictions remain in place and hunters must purchase a sika hunting stamp to pursue sika deer. The DNR encourages hunters to consult the Maryland Guide to Hunting and Trapping for information on bag limits, and other regulations.
