Oklahoma deer season usually runs from October 1st through January 31st. However there are a few exceptions. In some units the deer season may be shorter or longer depending on the management goals set by the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation (ODWC). For example in some units the deer season may end earlier to help reduce the deer population. So it really depends on what unit you are hunting in and what the management goals are for that specific unit. You can check the ODWC website for more specific information on deer season dates in Oklahoma.
“Deer season dates are set each year by the Oklahoma Department of Wildlife Conservation Commission. The Commission sets deer season dates based on the recommendations of the Department’s wildlife biologists. The biologists consider several factors when making their recommendations including the health of the deer herd deer harvest numbers from the previous season and habitat conditions. The Commission then votes on the proposed deer season dates at their regularly scheduled meeting in August. The dates become official when they are published in the Oklahoma Register in September.”
