NEW FOR 2008

1.    Oklahoma’s license laws have changed. Many hunting licenses and permits can now be sold with an apprentice designation that allows individuals ages 16 to 35 without hunter education certification to hunt under certain conditions, provided: 1. They hunt with a licensed, hunter-education certified mentor who is 21 years of age or older and 2. The mentor is within arm’s length of the apprentice hunter and close enough to take immediate control of the firearm or archery equipment of the apprentice. For complete details, click here.

 2.    Beginning this year, hunt information for successful applicants will be immediately available online once fees are paid. Successful applicants will need to access the drawing results and print off their specific hunt instructions and maps from the controlled hunts web site once all appropriate fees are paid. These items will not be mailed. To view or print off maps and hunt instructions, visit the controlled hunts web site at www.wildlifedepartment.com/controlhunt.htm The actual permit allowing access to the hunt area will be mailed to successful applicants once fees are paid.
