Land Between the Lakes Quota Deer Hunt Application deadline July 31st

Golden Pond, KY — Land Between The Lakes (LBL) National Recreation Area reminds hunters that July 31st, the deadline for applications for 2010 quota deer hunts, is rapidly approaching.

To submit a hunt application, go online to www.lbl.org and apply before July 31st, 2010.  You can revisit the LBL website in late August and use your login information and password to see if you were drawn and print your permit and maps.  If you are not drawn, your updated preference point information will be displayed.

Deer harvested on LBL are bonus deer and do not count toward statewide bag limits.  All quota hunt permits will be either-sex permits.  Also, there is an LBL-wide one (1) antlered buck limit. 

Habitat maps, and the LBL Recreation Map which shows the hunt areas, are available on the Internet at http://www.lbl.org/VCMaps.html.  LBL Recreation Maps are also available for purchase at LBL facilities for $3.00.
