Application deadline is July 15 for Wildlife and Parks special hunts. Dozens of limited-draw hunts for upland birds, doves, waterfowl and deer are available by application only.

Many of these hunts provide opportunities on public areas that are normally closed to hunting. Most are open to all hunters, but some are designed to accommodate young or disabled hunters.

Forms are available on the Web at www.kdwp.state.ks.us.
