Beginning Thursday, Missourians will be able to apply for more than 100 managed deer hunts across the state. The Missouri Department of Conservation offers managed deer hunts for archery, muzzleloading, crossbow, and modern firearms from mid-September through mid-January at conservation areas, state parks, and national wildlife refuges. The application period runs through the entire month of July. Hunters will be selected by a weighted random drawing. Draw results will be available from August 15th to January 15th.
