New - Pheasant Hard Card Design
The Iowa DNR is introducing a new hard card design to commemorate the Pheasant Centennial Celebration. This design is now available to customers who would like to purchase a hard card. Find out more by visiting the Centennial Celebration: A Century of Iowa Pheasant Hunting Rush of the Flush. An 8x11 poster promoting the pheasant hard card will be included in the December license vendor mailing. The Pheasant Centennial Celebration poster is available to be downloaded on this webpage.

Reminder-Special LOT Deer Licenses
The general and antlerless landowner tenant licenses that are sold for a fee of $2.00 will no longer be season specific. Previous to this change, the customer was required to choose a season. These licenses can be used in any regular season, using the method of take for the season, until filled. (Youth and Disabled Season qualifications still apply). The customer will still need to choose a season for the two paid $15.00 landowner tenant licenses.
