This year, the Wildlife Department is offering special family hunts for families on three Wildlife Management Areas. Applications are open for hunts at Okmulgee, Arbuckle Springs and Cross Timbers Wildlife Management Areas.
This is a project designed to provide more family hunting opportunities, initiated originally in 2023 after a survey of female hunters identified the need. The application is free and open through June 20.
Deer taken during this special hunt do not count toward your season’s bag limit. A family consists of one to two adults 21 and older, plus one to three children aged 10-17. The hunts are held throughout November and December. Learn more or apply below.
Login to your Go Outdoors Oklahoma profile and select “Controlled Hunts” to apply.
