And Midyett says deer are plentiful in Dent County.

Archery season in Missouri will take a break after November 12th for the firearms deer season.

Archery season will pick back up on November 24th and will go through January 15th.

Permits allow for two deer of either sex and only one antlered deer may be taken before November 14th.
