FIRST-COME, FIRST-SERVED


Few Over-the-Counter and Surplus Hunting Licenses Available August 3

Hunters can buy over-the-counter and surplus licenses for deer B, elk B and antelope beginning Monday, Aug. 3, but few licenses are available and they're expected to go fast.

​

Surplus licenses are those still remaining after Montana's recent special hunting license drawings. The left-over licenses are sold on a first-come first-served basis. "B" licenses are for hunting antlerless deer or elk, and for doe-fawn antelope.

​

"There aren't many left over so they'll sell in a hurry," said Hank Worsech, the licensing bureau chief for Montana Fish, Wildlife & Parks in Helena. "The best advice is to buy online."

​

Online sales will begin at about 5 a.m. on Aug. 3. The licenses can be purchased via FWP's website at fwp.mt.gov, then click "Buy a License"; or from any FWP license provider. FWP offices will open at 8 a.m. on Aug. 3 to accommodate walk-in customers.

​

Hunters may hold one either-sex and up to two doe/fawn antelope licenses, and may possess a total of seven deer B licenses in any combination via drawing, over-the-counter, or surplus purchase. The list of available licenses can be viewed online at fwp.mt.gov.​

Good luck!
