Hunters can now apply for Indiana Department of Natural Resources (DNR) reserved hunts at GoOutdoorsIN.com.
Reserved hunts included in this round include December Gamebird Areas and Indiana Private Lands Access (IPLA) hunts.
The online application method is the only way to apply for the hunts listed. No late entries will be accepted. Applicants must possess a hunting license that is valid for the hunt for which they apply. A $1 tech fee is charged for each hunt application purchased.
Applications must be submitted by 11:59 p.m. ET on Wednesday, Oct. 29. A complete list of hunts available is at on.IN.gov/reservedhunt.
In December 2024 a new license system, the Activity Hub, replaced the former system. To purchase a license or apply for a reserved hunt, follow the instructions below. Allow yourself plenty of time to log in and learn how the system works.
Click the login button on the home page of GoOutdoorsIN.com. From there, you will be taken to Access Indiana, where you will be required to log in or create an account. Once logged in through Access Indiana, you will automatically be directed back to the Activity Hub. From there, you will be able to purchase a license and apply for reserved hunts. Note that if it’s your first time using the Activity Hub, you will need to look yourself up in the system and verify or correct your personal information.
Hunters at each participating property will be selected through random computerized draws and will be able to view results at GoOutdoorsIN.com. An email will be sent to all applicants when the drawings have been completed.
