Indiana Deer Bundle

White-tailed deer in Toronto, Canada

What licenses can the deer license bundle replace?
You can use the bundle to replace the one antlered deer you would harvest using your archery/crossbow license OR your firearms license OR your muzzleloader license.
AND The bundle can be used to replace up to two antlerless deer you would harvest using your archery/crossbow license OR your muzzleloader license OR your bonus antlerless license.
OR You can use the bundle to replace the three antlerless deer you would harvest using your archery/crossbow license, muzzleloader license, and/or bonus antlerless license.
What are the benefits of the deer bundle for multi-season hunters?
The benefits are:
  • The ability to hunt multiple seasons (except the urban season) and harvest up to three deer.
  • The opportunity to hunt antlered deer in the archery/crossbow, firearms, and muzzleloader seasons until you harvest an antlered deer.
  • Increased cost savings the more seasons you hunt.
What are some examples of things you CAN do with the deer bundle license?
  • You can hunt for your antlered deer during archery season while filling antlerless bags. If you do not have an antlered deer come by during archery season, pick up a legal firearm and go out during that season.
  • You can have three licenses available during firearms season, and if you don't fill them, take your muzzleloader out during muzzleloader season, or take your firearms out in the special antlerless season and try to harvest an antlerless deer.
  • You can have a license privilege that allows you to harvest 1 antlered and 2 antlerless or 3 antlerless deer during the archery season, flip back and forth using different types of legal archery equipment (long/recurve/compound/cross) during the archery season if you prefer. If you choose not to harvest all three deer with archery equipment, you can pick up a legal firearm and hunt during firearms, muzzleloader, or special antlerless season until you reach your bag limit for the deer bundle.
Can I use the bundle as a bonus antlerless license on DNR properties?
The bundle cannot be used to take bonus antlerless deer on a DNR property during special antlerless deer season nor during any regular deer season, except where authorized. See the Indiana Hunting and Trapping Guide or contact the DNR property you wish to hunt for exceptions.
Can I use the bundle in the urban deer zone?
No the deer license bundle cannot be used in the urban deer zone to satisfy urban deer zone bag limits. It can be used in urban zones when fulfilling regular season bag limits
Can I use a crossbow with the deer bundle?
Yes, any legal equipment can be used for the seasons that the bundle can be used
