I have a couple young daughters who are hunting for the first time this year. They each have their mentored youth license. Can I purchase a doe tag for them for our own property?

There are so many deer seasons; how can my mentored youth participate?

Early Antlerless - Tag valid on antlerless only; any open DMU; private land only.
Liberty Hunt - Tag valid on any deer; archery and crossbow can hunt on public land; firearm limited to private land.
Archery - Tag valid on any deer; archery and crossbow can hunt on public or private land.
Regular Firearm - Tag valid on any deer; firearm limited to private land.
Muzzleloading - Tag valid on any deer; muzzleloaders limited to private land.
Late Antlerless - Tag valid on antlerless only; any open DMU; private land only.

The last part is what I was looking for. Thanks!

Strange they only get one tag. I don't see the harm in being able to purchase additional licenses. I wonder if it just to discourage parents from buying extra tags in juniors name and then shooting the deer for them. Otherwise I don't see the reasoning.
