Quabbin Deer Hunt Permits Drawn
Winning numbers for the 2010 Quabbin Controlled Deer Hunt were drawn September 8th in a special lottery at the Department of Conservation and Recreation Quabbin Administration Building in Belchertown.
Licenses ending in these numbers were drawn for hunting segments in Petersham, Prescott, Hardwick and New Salem in the following order:

3, 26, 76, 19, 39, 46, 16, 74, 84, 24, 64
Selected hunters listed by license number can be found at www.mass.gov/dcr/watersupply/watershed/documents/2010deerhuntlotteryresults.pdf
A total of 1,226 permits were selected from an applicant pool of 1,850 eligible persons, with hunters assigned to one of four segments scheduled for hunting this fall. Hunters were required to apply in groups, with a minimum of two and a maximum of six hunters per application. The selection process issued permits based upon the last digits of all hunting licenses listed on the application. If a license number was selected, all hunters on the application received permits for that segment. Once selected, hunters were then removed from the pool of applicants. Hunters were able to rank the segments by preference and the selection process assigned the segment based on these choices.
The Quabbin Controlled Deer Hunt is an annual event conducted on Quabbin Reservoir watershed lands, implemented as part of the management program to maintain a balance between deer herd densities and forest regeneration.
All successful applicants will receive written notification by early October. For further information, please contact the Quabbin Visitor Center at (413) 323-7221.
