A quota hunt is a scheduled event at a Wildlife Management Area or other state-managed property where a limited number of hunters are allowed.

Quota levels are based upon the sound principles of wildlife management and public desires for a quality hunt.  These hunts provide a challenging experience to hunters of all levels.

There is no application fee, however, selected hunters must be properly licensed to participate in a quota hunt.

Beginning June 1, 2013, hunters of all ages can apply online for quota hunts including all deer, alligator, waterfowl, dove and many others, according to the Georgia Department of Natural Resources’ Wildlife Resources Division.

Assistant Chief of the Game Management Section of the Wildlife Resources Division John Bowers said, “All applicants must have an online quota hunt account to apply for these popular hunts.  Interested persons who do not have an account should create one before applying.  Maintaining a current valid email is important to ensure timely notices of quota hunt confirmations and notices. Please review and update your account information regularly.”

Application Deadlines

• Alligator: July 31, 2013
• Dove: August 15th
• Deer: September 1st

Please be careful out there.  You might poke somebody’s eye out.
