The moment you've been waiting for is almost here! Beginning at midnight CST on Saturday, August 15, you can purchase your Iowa Resident deer tags online at https://gooutdoorsiowa.com/ or at your local license agent. If you are heading to a store, be sure to check their hours before you go, as some may have reduced their hours due to COVID-19. Resident Iowa hunters may purchase one any deer license for a firearm season, one any deer license for archery season, and one county specific antlerless-only deer license. It's been a tough year so far and if you're like us, you're ready to go hunting so be sure to get ready for the upcoming seasons!

These are unprecedented times and personal health and safety takes top priority.
Happy hunting from the Iowa DNR team!
