Idaho is a great destination for over-the-counter elk hunters. Last year, most hunters had better luck getting their desired tags at the vendors. Typically, the website will be slow and has been known to crash on December 1st.
IDAHO FISH AND GAME ARCHERY COURSE LICENSE
To purchase an over-the-counter tag online, go to or stop by any Idaho Fish and Game office or any of the hundreds of license vendors throughout the state.
Keep in mind that residents are not limited by an overall tag quota for deer and elk, but they are allowed to buy nonresident tags as second tags after August 1st if non-resident tags have not sold out. For this reason, all hunters should select their unit and purchase their 2023 tags on December 1st when the tags go on sale at 10:00 AM MST.Īlthough Idaho offers over-the-counter tag opportunities, non-residents are limited to a statewide overall quota for all general season hunts and a quota per unit/zone. Over-the-counter deer tags for non-residents are now restricted to all open seasons for one game management unit and are subject to a per unit quota. All elk zone non-resident tags are under a quota system, and most zones will sell out on the first sales day on December 1st. The demand for over-the-counter tags is off the charts, and we anticipate it only getting worse. Idaho continues to offer many hunting opportunities for those willing to work hard on December 1st to pick up their tag.
