Deer · Hunt Area 131: seasons & hunts (2026)

Every 2026 hunt type valid in Area 131, from the WGFD Commission regulation. “Draw odds” links go to the hunt’s draw-odds page (your saved residency and pool are applied there). General (“Gen”) licenses are not area-specific draws — see WGFD.

How archery works (WGFD): there is no separate archery draw. To hunt the special archery dates you need a limited quota license, or a General license in areas with a General season for the hunt, plus an archery license. The archery license is bought, not drawn (online, at WGFD offices or license agents); one per year covers all big and trophy game special archery seasons, and it does not add an animal. During archery dates you follow the limitations listed for those dates. Archery equipment can also be used in the regular season (hunter orange required then).
