Did I hear correctly that a tag for black bear was now included for lifetime license holders?
This is an excerpt of the email I received from the Wildlife Department on the license fees. Seems like for resident licenses the cost of the license and tags increase but you only have to buy one deer tag for your entire season limit now.
“This act also brings Oklahoma’s fees more in line to those of other surrounding states. In some cases, the license cost will increase, and in others the cost will decrease. For example, a resident deer archery hunter who wanted to harvest all six deer allowed for last year’s season had to have a $32 annual hunting license and a $20 deer license for each animal taken, at a total cost of $152. Under the new fee structure, that same hunter will now pay a total of $72 (annual hunting license at $36, and full-limit deer archery season license for $36).”

Per ODWC’s email, a black bear tag is now included in the lifetime
Maybe I'll get to use it one day . . .
Check out what’s changed for the youth….such an evil money grabbing agency…LM*off!
It’s really hard to take a comment on this subject serious from a guy that accepts a paycheck from the agency jacking up prices.
The way I read it...if a 16 year old kid hunts rifle, BP, and bow deer season, they would be $35 for each and another $25 for a license. That sucks!
Agree with everything you say. I’m glad I got my lifetime combination back in the 90s.
I wish wally world would sell their goods at the prices of 20 years ago.It’s really hard to take a comment on this subject serious from a guy that accepts a paycheck from the agency jacking up prices.
Negative
Youth under 18 (including NON-RESIDENT) will be exempt from a fishing license and the annual hunting license.
Resident youth will be able to buy a hunting license to cover ALL species and ALL seasons for $25.
The same for non-resident youth will be available as a 5-day license for $75 or an annual license for $150.
Sounds like a good deal to me.
