Free Hunting This Weekend in Oklahoma

1-713

August 31, 2023

The first full weekend of September is traditionally Free Hunting Days in Oklahoma.

On these two days, Oklahoma residents may participate in open hunting seasons without the requirement to have a state hunting license, according to Beckham County Game Warden Lt. James Edwards.

This year, open hunting seasons during Free Hunting Days include a number of species, such as dove, squirrel, and coyote. Others are listed in the current Oklahoma Fishing & Hunting Regulations.

However, Game Wardens will be on duty as usual to ensure compliance with bag limits, shooting hours, shotgun plugs, hunter education requirements, special area regulations, and other general regulations that are published in the Oklahoma Fishing and Hunting Regulations.
