WMA Deer Hunt Applications Available

The Arkansas Game and Fish Commission has opened the application period to hunt deer on some of the more popular wildlife management areas it manages until July 1.

Hunters interested in pursuing white-tailed deer during this fall’s permit-only hunts may apply online at www.agfc.com.

Applicants for WMA deer hunt permits must provide a $5 nonrefundable processing fee at the time of application for each hunt for which they apply. If successful, they will receive their permit without any additional fees.

Each hunter may submit one application for each type of permit hunt: youth, archery, muzzleloader and modern gun.

Hunters must be at least 6 years old to apply for any WMA permit hunts. Those applying for youth hunts must be at least six but no older than 15 on the day the hunt begins.
