Deer Hunting

The Most Popular Hunting Season in Oklahoma

Oklahoma is one of the best states in the nation for whitetail deer hunting, and it's big business for Oklahoma with an estimated total economic impact of over $600 million a year!

Fueling that deer hunting popularity is a management plan that serves our diverse hunters’ interests along with a strong education component outlining the benefits of balanced sex ratios and selective buck harvest.

After The Harvest

Upon a successful hunt here are some resources to help you find a place to have your deer harvested.  If you wish to process your own deer we have some videos that will help you.  We also have a program that allows you to donate your harvest to a participating Hunters Against Hunger processor.  You can also sign-up for the Deer Share program which helps you share your harvest with others more easily.

The Harvest Report is updated weekly. Sportsmen have the option to exclude their names; however, your deer harvest information will still appear in the report. The report uses an asterisk (*) in lieu of excluded names.
