Its hard to manage 1500 acres in East Tn when you are only allowed to shoot 3 does a year per person. If you shoot the 3 does, you give up your buck tag for bow and mzzldr season. I think we need atleast one weekend during rifle to take a doe! We have our DMAP program that's available for you. Depending upon the management plan that's implemented we can issue as many doe permits for your property as necessary. If you're interested in it call Dan Gibbs at (800) 332-0900. Good luck.
What exactly does this program do?

The only problem with TN's DMAP is the cost. Most other states are free. I wish TWRA would put more support into the DMAP program. As in making it cheaper.

It is expensive. $1,000 is a bit steep for a couple extra doe tags. Especially when Middle Tn can kill 3 a day!
