Ok, I talked to VT Fish and Wildlife, here is the deal (in case anyone is watching this thread, wondering):
Each archery tag you buy (I think you can buy up to 4?) can be filled with an antlerless deer. There is no separate permit or lottery for this, the archery tag itself is good for either sex. However, if you get a buck during archery, that's your one buck for the year. No gun season for you! I didn't realize that, but it makes sense.
All WMU's for the 2021 hunting season are open to antlerless archery. Not sure where that is posted, but that is straight from VT F&W.
Mark from MA basically called this one on the money. Thanks for all the input, and good luck this year!
