2023-2024 GEORGIA HUNTING REGULATIONS GUIDE NOW AVAILABLE

The new 2023-2024 Georgia Hunting Seasons and Regulations Guide is now available online, on the Go Outdoors GA app, and in print, announces the Georgia Department of Natural Resources’ Wildlife Resources Division.

This guide provides important information on season dates, bag limits, hunting licenses, wildlife management areas (WMAs), quota hunts, youth opportunities and so much more.

Some major changes for hunters in our area include:

• Bear Harvest Reporting: All harvested bears must be reported via Georgia Game Check (northern, central, southern, public and private land) within 24 hours of harvest. All bears must be presented for collection of biological samples in accordance with the zone-specific requirements (see p. 30 of the hunting guide).

• Either-sex Deer Opportunity: The number of ‘doe days’ has been increased in most counties. Find info about your county on pp. 22-23 of the hunting guide.

You can view the guide (or download) online at eregulations.com/georgia/hunting/ or on the Go Outdoors GA app.

Pick up a printed copy at Wildlife Resources Division offices and license vendors throughout Georgia.
