You could be drawn for the hunt of a lifetime! Elk season will soon be here for the City of Lawton starting on October 6th through the 9th then again on December 8th through the 11th.

Applications are now being accepted for the City of Lawton's 2022 elk hunt. If you're interested you'll need to submit an application and have a valid Oklahoma hunting license. You can apply and submit your application anytime from now until the deadline which is 5:00-pm CST on Friday, September 16th, 2022 (09-16-22).

They have made a few changes this year to the process. If you drew or tagged an elk on City of Lawton property in 2019, 2020, or 2021 you're not eligible to apply. They've also included a $25.00 application fee. For more information, you can click here. You can also contact Misty Roberts at misty.roberts@lawtonok.gov or call (580)-529-2663

If you plan on applying and are drawn for a hunt I certainly wouldn't be opposed to accepting any elk meat you'd like to share. Without a doubt, elk is the absolute best, hands down!

It's been a while since I've had any and I'm thinking some homemade jerky, chili, burgers and steaks would be perfect. But, only if you run out of room in your freezer.

All the details you need to get an application for this year's elk hunt and get signed up are listed in the official City of Lawton press release below:
