“license”

Disabled veteran residents in Arkansas will have a new lifetime hunting and fishing license available to them this fall thanks to legislation signed by Governor Hutchinson.

The 2022 National R3 Symposium wrapped up last week in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma. The 220 participants representing over 100 different organizations with an interest in hunting and shooting sports were the first to lay eyes on data released from the Council to Advance Hunting and the Shooting Sports (Council), documenting a slight decrease in hunting license sales in 2021.

More is learned about what keeps hunters in the field every year thanks in part to license-sales data.

While hunting participation at the nationwide level is down, license sales in Western and Southeastern states are booming.

The Pennsylvania Game Commission today announced that completion of the National Rifle Association’s free hunter-education online course will satisfy the prerequisite for obtaining a hunter or fur-taker license in the Commonwealth.

In an effort to improve the quality of data being submitted to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service, Arkansas Harvest Information Program (HIP) registration will no longer be offered at license vendors such as sporting goods stores.

An elephant license and 50 miles along the Galana River to hunt Kenya’s famed elephant country were pretty special back in 1970.

Despite that Pennsylvania’s mentored hunting-license program was designed to create opportunities for newcomers to hunting, a new proposal simply creates more barriers.
