Important Note for Connecticut
Only the 2026 regular private-land rifle deer base dates on eligible 10+ acre landholdings were reviewed. Rifle/landowner authorization, current consent, permits, zone bag/sex/tag limits, Sunday trail restrictions, devices, access and closures need agency checks. State-land, separate landowner and junior hunts have different scope. Other records and license-year metadata remain unverified.
