From the website, hunters will need to obtain a background check, view a safety video, pass a short quiz andregister their firearms. Background checks will be performed by the Army with no additional cost to hunters.
Once all the requirements are met, hunters are then eligible to purchase their hunting permits on the website.
Paper check-in forms at hunter check stations will no longer be used. All hunters should read and familiarizethemselves with the new PTA Hunting Policy, which can be found using the Regulations tab near the top of thewebsite.
Those who wish to participate in shotgun game bird hunting this winter, or the spring turkey season, will need tosubmit a firearms registration form, along with copies of their county registration for each firearm they plan to useon PTA.
All permits are good through June 30, 2017. Each individual should select the permit that best fits their huntingactivity, as only one permit is allowed per account. Nonhunter permits are available for those who wish toaccompany permitted hunters, but they must also create an account and complete the background check andsafety brief requirements. Nonhunter permit holders can assist in recovering game, but may not activelyparticipate in any hunting and may not be in possession of any weapon or ammunition.
