Fall quota hunt application period open through Sept 30 By Lisa Jackson Frankfort, KY - Hunters can now apply to participate in Kentucky's fall quota hunts. From September 1-30, 2026, the Kentucky Department of Fish and Wildlife Resources is accepting applications from both resident and nonresident hunters for quota hunts for deer, waterfowl, pheasants and sandhill cranes. Hunters can apply for these annual quota hunts through MidnightCT on Wednesday, September 30, 2026, via the MyProfile online portal at the department's website (fw.ky.gov). Applications are not accepted over the phone, and the minimum fee is $3 per application. Applicants will receive a confirmation number, and results will be posted online by 4pmCT on Friday, October 9, 2026, through MyProfile. Randomized drawings are conducted to determine recipients of the hunt opportunities that are each limited to a specific quota number. Kentucky Fish and Wildlife offers 38 deer quota hunts at various wildlife management areas (WMAs) and state parks; waterfowl quota hunts at five public land locations; pheasant hunts at three WMAs; and statewide permits to hunt sandhill cranes. Some hunts are mentored hunts for youth and accompanying adults, and several hunts are open to mobility-impaired hunters only. Quota hunts control the number of hunters in an area to provide quality hunting opportunities and regulate harvests at specific areas. Residents and nonresidents are eligible, but a maximum of 10 percent nonresidents can be drawn in each deer quota hunt pool. Only the person successfully drawn for a quota hunt may hunt. Prior to hunts, drawn hunters must purchase applicable licenses and permits to legally hunt during quota hunts. Visit the Quota Hunts webpage or the Waterfowl Quota Hunts webpage on the department's website (fw.ky.gov) to see lists of all quota hunts, dates and special regulations. This information is also available in the annual Kentucky Hunting and Trapping Guide (printed copies of the guide are available at license vendors throughout the state) and the online-only Kentucky Hunting Guide for Migratory Birds and Waterfowl. Questions about fall quota hunts may be directed to the agency's Information Center at 800-858-1549, 8 a.m. - 4:30 p.m. (ET) weekdays, excluding state holidays, or at info.center@ky.gov.
