Georgia does require a hunting license to hunt public land. In addition a Big Game license is required to hunt deer (or hogs). Also, since most public land is in a WMA (Wildlife Management Area) a WMA license is also required. So deer hunting on public land requires 3 licenses: 1) GA Hunting License 2) Big Game License 3) WMA License. Small Game hunting on public land requires two licenses: 1) GA Hunting License 2) WMA License.
On private land the requirement for the WMA license is removed.
A "Georgia firearm license" has nothing directly to do with hunting, as it refers to what in many states would be known as a Concealed Handgun License, Concealed Weapons License, or License to Carry a Concealed Pistol. The reason it is not called a concealed handgun license, etc., is that it is not limited to the carrying of concealed firearms. A Georgia Firearms License relieves the holder from the legal restrictions concerning possessing a firearm in public. There is no requirement that the handgun be concealed. Without this license, carrying a handgun is prohibited, unless you are going directly to or from the shooting range, the area where you hunt, the gunsmith, or some other lawful activity where the gun is required. If you do not have a Georgia Firearm License, you should keep your firearms unloaded and locked up while driving, just in case you are pulled over and questioned about it by a police officer. Most Georgia police officers support hunters and know how to tell the difference between a criminal and a law-abiding citizen, but you should still exercise caution.
One important aspect of the Georgia Firearm License for hunters is that without one, you cannot legally possess a cartridge-firing handgun while hunting during muzzleloading ("primitive weapon") season. With the license, you can possess the modern handgun, but are limited to using it for self-defense against human attackers. You still cannot use a modern handgun to kill game during the primitive weapon period.

∙ 12y agoPrivate land owners do not need a license to hunt on their own land. Any blood or legally dependent relative living in the same house as the owner do not need a license either. If you are hunting migratory birds, then you need a free HIP permit.

∙ 14y agoYou must be on your own land, or that of your parents, and you must live on the land. You are still required to get a license (landowner permit), but there is no charge. You may not use it to hunt anywhere but on the aforementioned family property.

∙ 15y agoNo they do not. However if you buy one from a dealer you will need to do standard federal paperwork registering it from you. Not required for private party sales.
