I just found this under the "Dedicated Hunter Rule". I take it that it doesn't count as a harvest.
(3)(a) Participants may apply for or obtain any other non general season buck deer permit as provided in Rule R657-5 and the proclamation of the Wildlife Board for taking big game.
(i) harvest of a deer with a permit obtained pursuant to Subsection (a) shall not be considered a program harvest.
(ii) participants are not required to complete program requirements prior to obtaining a permit pursuant to Subsection (a).
