I applied last year and it felt like a game of chance! It’s a bit nerve-wracking waiting for the results. Anyone else feel the same?
Haha, it really does! Maybe we need to throw a lucky charm into our applications next time!
A little humor never hurts! Just remember to stay positive and prepare well. Reflecting on your previous application experiences can also help improve your chances next time.
To get deer tags in Kentucky, you’ll need to purchase a hunting license and apply for tags through the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources. Check their website for current regulations and deadlines!
Great info, Brandon! I remember my first time applying; it felt a bit overwhelming with all the options. Just make sure you beat the deadlines!
I applied for my tags last year, and it was super easy! Just make sure to keep an eye on email notifications from KDFWR. They send out helpful reminders.

I’ve had some challenges finding good hunting spots. Does anyone have recommendations for public hunting areas in Kentucky?

For a successful hunt, I recommend scouting areas in late summer when deer patterns are easier to spot. It made a big difference for me!
That’s a common struggle! My favorite spot is the Daniel Boone National Forest. Plenty of space and some nice deer out there!

I once forgot to print my tags before heading out. Talk about a panic! Always check your gear the night before your hunt!

Haha, that sounds stressful! I had a similar experience last year. Now I write everything down in a checklist.
Does anyone recommend specific bait? I’ve heard corn works well, but I’m curious about any other methods that have proven effective.
Corn is definitely popular, but I’ve had luck with apples too! They seem to draw deer in pretty well during the early season.

It’s a great time to reflect on past hunts! Remembering that big buck I got last year gives me motivation for this season. Good luck, everyone!
