Controlled Hunts
• Application rates for hunts at the McAlester Army
Ammunition Plant are usually high and are among the
toughest spring turkey hunts to be drawn for. Consid-
er applying for other areas to increase your odds.
• In areas where two hunts will be held on different
dates, applying for the later-season hunt will usually
increase your chances of being selected.
• If you get an email notifying you that you’ve been
drawn, make sure to go back online to claim the hunt
by the deadline listed in the notice!
