Taylor Howell, 15, left, and her grandmother Cheryl Howell walk through a clearing to the deer Taylor killed on Cheryl's property in Fawn Township. The Howells have eight to ten stands they hunt from on the property.

The 2017-18 hunting season is fast approaching, and you need to apply for a license if you want to take part. Applying for a Pa. hunting license can be done online or in person through the Pennsylvania Game Commission. Below are the steps for applying for a license.

What to do:

  • First-time hunters and trappers must complete a Hunter-Trapper Education course and pass a test. The program can be completed online for a $19.50 fee when you pass the test after unlimited attempts. You can also attend a course at a designated location throughout the state and take the test there.
  • Next, purchase a hunting license online or in person at a license-issuing agent.

Things to know:

  • There are different license types, including a resident adult hunting license, a resident junior hunting license, a resident senior hunting license and more.
  • The resident adult hunting license costs $20.90 for Pennsylvania residents ages 17-64.
  • It includes one antlered deer tag, one fall turkey tag, one spring turkey tag and small game hunting privileges for one year.
  • The license is good from July 1, 2017 to June 30, 2018.
  • It does not include a snow goose permit, anterlerless deer license, a permit for hunters and trappers with disabilities, a tree stand identification number permit, a deer attractant permit or a shooting range permit.
  • If you wish to do additional hunting, such as archery or bear hunting, you will need to purchase additional licenses.

If you have other questions, check out the Pennsylvania Game Commission's website at www.pgc.pa.gov. Otherwise, be safe – and happy hunting!
