    Default New hunter OTC licenses questions

    Hello, me and my wife just got our hunters ed cards and would like to buy OTC elk or deer licenses. I tried online but the process seems complicated and doesn't let me choose GMU ( I dont really care which one but I would need identical for my wife too). Is buying from retailers (who sells them) is better choice if we need to identical licenses. I hunted before (12 years ago but it was back in Europe so the licensing process is very confusing for me).
    Thanks

    Best bet is to go to one of the CPW offices. Then can answer questions and give you tips to make hunting experience better.

    I have always had great service from the folks at the 60th and Broadway office.

    Thanks whats where I took the course. We both have ar-10's with 5 round magazines and I bought winchester supreme 168gr etip ammo. I just wish the whole process would be explained better online. I have general idea how preference points work but they didn't talk about OTC licenses at all. I would love to go for 2nd rifle season but online I didnt see the option how to buy 2 identical licenses for husband and wife.
    As I understand that we need identical licenses if hunting together.
    What GMU's usualy have OTC licenses at this time of the year.

    As ridiculously contrived and needlessly complicated as the licensing is, I would go to a CPW office. This just makes sure all your bases are covered.

    Any of you guys bought the same licenses for the group of two or bigger?

    I would second this recommendation. You can get questions answered when you are there as well.

    OTC deer is only available for white tail and late rifle season (December). OTC antlered elk, unlimited, is available 2nd and 3rd season. You don't pick a GMU but there is a map of all units that are available to hunt and you can hunt in any of them. These are available at any place that sells licenses, Cabellas, Dick's, Walmart....
    OTC with caps went on sale a couple days ago on a first come, first serve but have never gone that route so can't help much with those.
