Urban Archery Deer Season Begins

When:

Urban Archery deer season begins Saturday, January 13, and runs through Sunday, February 18. Additional information can be found on the North Carolina Hunting and Fishing website, linked.

Urban Archery deer season only applies to land within the town limits. Hunting isn't allowed on any town-owned properties and the town doesn't maintain a list of private properties where hunting can occur. Hunters must have permission from private property owners to hunt on their properties during this season.

All hunting regulations apply. Hunters must follow regular deer-season regulations, such as licensing, tagging, reporting, permission from landowners, and all other safety regulations.

The Urban Archery deer season was implemented by the state to better control the deer populations. For more information, please contact NC Wildlife Resources Commission.
