There have been some significant changes to the license structure for this year.
Highlights:
- Consolidation of more than 50 hunting and fishing licenses into 15.
- Defining all “youth” as anyone younger than 18, whether resident or nonresident.
- Creation of a single “youth super license” that will take the place of about 15 different types of youth hunting licenses.
- Providing resident deer hunters one license for all deer they are allowed to harvest in a season, which previously was only offered to nonresidents.
- Increasing license costs for nonresidents hunting deer and waterfowl in Oklahoma.
- Adding the black bear hunting license to the privileges granted with the lifetime hunting and lifetime combination licenses.
