How To Apply For Controlled Hunts
Application Period:
April 1–May 20, 2026
A Step-By-Step Guide
The annual controlled hunts application period opens in April and runs until mid-May. The entire process occurs online at license.GoOutdoorsOklahoma.com. There is a one-time application fee of $10 paid at the time you apply, regardless of how many hunt categories you apply in.
After applicants have reached the maximum number of hunt choices allowed in a category (up to 14 hunt choices across four categories for a $10 application fee), applicants will then be allowed to buy additional hunt choices at $3 per choice. There is no limit to how many extra hunt choices can be purchased, but applicants can only select a specific hunt once. Also, applicants will be able to add PointGuard insurance to each category, a safeguard against losing preference points in case the hunter cannot attend any of the hunts he wins.
2026 Controlled Hunt Categories
Additional hunt info will be available when they are selected in the GoOutdoorsOklahoma system.
