MyDNR, Indiana’s Outdoor Newsletter: Hunters can apply for reserved hunts at on.IN.gov/reservedhunt, the one-stop information spot for the hunts. The online method is the only way to apply. No late entries will be accepted. Applicants must possess a hunting license that’s valid for the hunt for which they apply.

Applications must be submitted by 11:59 p.m. ET on Sunday, Sept. 15. More specific hunt information for individual properties is available on the website.

Hunters will be selected through a random computerized drawing. An email will be sent to all applicants when draws have been completed. Applicants will be able to view draw results online within two weeks after the application period closes.

Please note that only one application per hunt is allowed. No changes can be made once an application is submitted.   The application process is now consolidated into the online services website along with licenses, CheckIN Game, and HIP registration. An online account is not required to apply, but a Customer ID number is needed.

In this system, hunts without a registration fee will follow the same process as those with a fee. Applicants must add a hunt to their cart and place an order to submit their application. If the transaction total is $0, the applicant will not be asked to enter credit card information.

Get more information at Reserved hunt applications open Aug. 19.
