Free Hunting Days, Sept. 3-4.
« on: August 26, 2011, 08:50:10 AM »
Free Hunting Days pave way for taking someone hunting
            Oklahoma Free Hunting Days take place Sept. 3-4, during which Oklahoma residents do not need a hunting license or HIP permit to go afield.
            According to the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation’s migratory game bird biologist, Free Hunting Days is a great way to introduce someone to hunting.
            “Dove season is a great time to introduce or reintroduce people to the world of hunting,” said Josh Richardson, migratory game bird biologist for the Wildlife Department. “Gear requirements are low, doves are found everywhere and usually in high numbers, and the hunting can occur in more of a social type outing — perfect for those new hunters who need supervision or instruction. And with the Free Hunting Days, potential new hunters don’t even have to buy a license to try this out.”
            In addition to dove hunting, squirrel season is open and there are other year-round hunting opportunities are available as well for species such as coyotes. To see a full listing of hunting opportunities, consult the current “Oklahoma Hunting Guide,” available free on wildlifedepartment.com or anywhere hunting licenses are sold.

Dinny,
 
We usually go out to Black Kettle, out northwest of Elk City.
Big public hunting area.
But with this heat I'm prob staying in the living room...... ;D
If you and your buddy don't have any luck around Lawton you might check it out.

Thanks, I'll look into Black Kettle. Sounds like it could be a great place to try!

OWDC used to have a booklet that showed all the parcels out there as well as other public land.
I'm pretty sure the maps are online. also.
 
The thing I like about BK is it's scattered all over the place out there.
Just keep an eye out for the signs posted and doves flying by.
We've always had decent luck dove hunting out there.
You just have to work at it some.

The convienience store north of Cheyenne a few miles sells maps that line out the area.
 
Best $7.50 you can spend if you want to hunt there.
