Hunters aiming to bag the big bucks and elks need to apply for deer and elk hunting permits by March 15 in order to participate in the 2013 hunting season.

An easy-to-use eight-page application packet is available from all hunting license providers, Montana Fish, Wildlife and Parks offices and online at fwp.mt.gov.

Successful applicants will receive their permits in mid-April and will have three extra months to make preparations for their fall hunts.

FWP spokesman in Helena, Ron Aasheim, said all deer and elk regulations became final on Feb. 14.

Hard copies of the hunting regulations will be on the shelf at FWP offices and local license providers in April.

Nonresidents who wish to apply for big game combination, elk combination or deer combination licenses and deer and elk permits for the 2013 fall hunting season can also apply online or download an application from FWP’s website.

To request an application by mail, write to: Licensing Section; Montana FWP; P.O. Box 200701, Helena MT; 59620-0701; or call: 444-2950.
