The deadline for deer lottery hunt applications is August 31, while aspiring waterfowl hunters must apply by September 30, creating an exciting opportunity for young hunters across the state.
Interested applicants can easily submit their applications online, with a nominal fee of $5 and a $3.50 transaction cost.
