"In Colorado, you can hunt on your own land without a license if you are a resident of the state and the land is designated as your primary residence." If this is true, I've been doing it wrong! In TN the landowner is exempt from having a license, but they must register deer and turkeys harvested.

The first big one to highlight for non-resident cow elk hunters is the increase in price for those licenses. In previous years non-residents could get discounted cow elk licenses, a savings of almost $200 when compared against the bull or either sex elk license. In 2023, that discount no longer applies.

These codes are found in our brochures and represent licenses that are available to you. A hunt code is what you enter when applying for the draw. Every hunt code is unique, but they are all structured the same way, so if you know how to read them, you can understand what every unique hunt code means.
