Check with the DNR in the state you are looking to hunt. But for the most part the States have all gone to a residency clause for determining who can hunt private land without a Liscense. In most States you have to "reside" on the property and it must be your "leagal" address. This is a way of controlling out of State hunt clubs that buy tracts of land for hunting purposes. Usually all members will share "partial" ownership of the property. By requiring residency- all members of the club would be required to have a liscense. Again- States are very different and many Myths exist. Checking with the State DNR will save you a lot of trouble. In most States, if you are found afield illegally, authorities can and do, seize your equipment and in some cases your vehicle. Fines are opresive and you could lose your right to hunt. It is not worth the risk. Call the Department of Natural Resources in the State you are planning to hunt!

As a rule- liscenses are an inexpensive way for us to protect our "right" to hunt. The fees collected go to protecting the game and providing a "place" to hunt and fish.

Do you need a license to hunt private land in Georgia?

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.


How do hunters get permission to hunt?

By passing a hunter's safety course which requires a test at the end of the class. afterward you will have to get a license in your state of residency. if you choose to hunt in another state you will have to get a license there also but usually you will only get a temporary one unless you hunt there regularly. then if you choose to hunt on someone else's land you will need written permission from the land owner.


If I live in Mississippi and own land in Louisiana do I need a hunting license to hunt my property in Mississippi and property in Louisiana?

Yes. Lawfully, according to the MDWFP, only the name filed as the "title owner" can hunt without a license (ie. if your wife, child, or 2nd cousin is not on the title, they will have to have a license to hunt)
