Dear Hunting - Archery
This activity is permitted on all of Arrowwood Refuge from the opening of the State season, about September 1st, to the day before the waterfowl season begins. The season is then closed until the State archery season reopens. This is generally the day after the firearms season closes in November. The later archery deer season remains open until the close of the State season.

Deer Hunting - Firearms
The Refuge is open to deer hunting during the State proclaimed season with the following restrictions: During the first 2-1/2 days of the season only those people holding special Refuge permits may hunt on the Refuge.

Upland Bird Season
A late upland bird season is normally held on the Refuge in accordance with State regulations. The season opens after the close of the firearms deer season and permits hunting for ring-necked pheasants, Hungarian partridge, and sharp-tailed grouse. Season dates and species open to hunting vary from year to year, so check current Refuge regulations before hunting.

Fox Hunting
Fox hunting is permitted on the open portions of the Refuge beginning with the opening of the firearms deer season. During the deer season only those hunters with valid deer licenses and unused deer tags can take fox. Following the deer season the entire refuge is open to fox hunting. The season closes in accordance with State regulations.
