Wildlife Management Area Antlerless Deer Permits

Antlerless deer permits are available in limited numbers on some WMAs. Hunts that offered antlerless deer permits last year are indicated with an asterisk (*) beside hunt numbers listed on the general gun and archery/muzzleloading gun quota permit worksheets. However, antlerless deer permits may be issued for any area, and the areas which will allow them along with the number of permits issued will be determined after a deer census is conducted in August. No wildlife management area offers an antlerless deer season, and antlerless deer may only be taken with an antlerless deer permit or quota permit.

To be eligible for antlerless deer permits:

• Applications must be received by the random drawing deadline for the specific type of quota permit application.
• You must check “Yes” to the antlerless deer question on the quota permit application.
• You must be assigned a quota permit for an area that allows antlerless deer permits.

Group applicants will be treated as individuals in the antlerless deer drawing. If one member of a group is selected for an antlerless deer permit, it does not mean all group members will receive antlerless deer permits.
