Ive looked at the Oklahoma wildlife site and found this. Me and a bunch of others cannot figure out what season it is corresponding to.

September 5 & 6: Free hunting days for Oklahoma residents, a hunting license, legacy permit and HIP permit are not required.

what does this mean? Free for what game?

If it is referring to Dove which is the only season open on those days then why isnt it with the Dove season dates?

OK I get it so it is like the free fishing days in Oklahoma right? I have my lifetime combo so I dont know what days are free or not. Bear< I've still got a question on the whole quota thing. Say one day there is 19 bears from the season that are checked in leaving 1 more for the quota to be filled and 5 hunters go out and 3 shoot a bear. How are they going to know the quota has been reached? Are they called or something? Also what happens to the 2 other hunters that each killed a bear then we over the quota? That whole quota thing confuses me.

From what I understand you just check the quota the night before a hunt. If they run over the number I dont think it will count against the hunters.

I've got my name on one of those bear tags. We've got at least 6 confirmed bears on our lease in Push county. Had one under my stand on two different occasions....he knew I was there, just didn't care. Ruined two perfectly good hunts. I owe him...lol.:D
