Be sure to use the same Conservation ID Number each year to get full benefit from the new preference-point system.
JEFFERSON CITY–Hunters have until Aug. 15 to apply for deer hunts at Missouri state parks, national wildlife refuges and nature preserves.
The Missouri Department of Conservation holds a drawing each summer to determine who gets to take part in managed deer hunts that take place from October through January. The application period opened July 1.
To complete the application process, you need your nine-digit Conservation Identification Number. This number is printed on hunting or fishing permits and on the backs of Conservation Heritage Cards. If you do not have a Conservation ID Number, call 573-751-4115 to obtain one. You also need the two-digit code for your chosen hunt. You can find hunt dates, locations and code numbers in the 2009 Fall Deer & Turkey Hunting Regulations and Information booklet, which will be available in July wherever hunting permits are sold.
