There are several ways to apply for a controlled hunt in Oregon. You can go to a license agent, by fax or apply by mail.

If you're applying by fax or mail, you'll need this form.

You can download this form to see the proposed tag numbers and the season dates for the upcoming 2007 and 2008 seasons.

Another opportunity that Oregon Deer Hunters may want to consider is the State's Landowner Preference Program (or LOP).

If you fail to draw one of the permits, you'll still be eligible for a general season tag or any leftover tag. These are on a first come, first served basis so be on the watchout!

Here's hoping your 2008 Oregon deer season is a successful one. It's just about time to be getting out and finding those Oregon deer hunting hotspots!
