If you're planning to hunt Oregon's r***e deer, bear, or cougar seasons this year, don't wait.

Today is the deadline to purchase your tags through ODFW.

Every season begins long before opening day. It starts with preparation, planning, and making sure you're ready when the time comes. Take a moment today to secure your tags and be ready to continue Oregon's proud hunting tradition.

Purchase your tags before the deadline and make this season count.

Hunters and anglers play a defining role in conservation in America, and the fourth Saturday in September is a day to celebrate YOU.

Your purchases of licenses and hunting and fishing equipment fund research, conservation and management. Many of you contribute even more though volunteer hours and outdoor stewardship.

If you hunt or fish, we honor you and probably don’t have to remind you to get outside tomorrow and celebrate all you’ve accomplished.

It was truly an honor to help make this important change for children facing life-threatening illnesses and their families.

Words matter. These children deserve hope, not a label that takes it away. I’m grateful to Brett Loper, the Hunt of a Lifetime Foundation, ODFW, and the Fish and Wildlife Commission for working together to make this happen.

According to the official Oregon Secretary of State logs, proponents of IP28 have now met their minimum signature threshold with more than a month to gather more. We cannot—and will not—let them succeed. We are launching a massive campaign counter-offensive built to drive IP 28 NO votes through the roof — and ultimately defeat this measure at the ballot box. If you have friends, family, or hunting buddies who have been sitting on the fence, tell them the threat is immediately outside the door. Now is the time for them to join. If you are in a position to upgrade your membership or make a donation, we need that fuel now more than ever. Thank you for your unwavering trust, your passion, and for standing firm with OHA. We owe it to our kids and grandkids to win this fight, and looking at the grit and determination of our members, we have what it takes. Visit https://oregonhunters.org
