 ANTLERLESS HUNTS
Utah Antlerless Guidebook • 2010
Utah offers antlerless hunts each year. These hunts serve two purposes: they help ensure
that populations remain at sustainable, manageable levels, and they remove animals that
pose depredation problems. Depending on the permit you obtain, you could hunt antlerless
deer, elk or moose or doe pronghorn. The following section describes the species you can
hunt, the weapons you can use and the types of permits that are available.
Antlerless deer hunting
Utah Code § 23-20-3 and Utah Admin. Rule R657-5-28
An “antlerless deer” is a deer without antlers or with
antlers five inches or shorter (R657-5-2(2)(a)).
To hunt antlerless deer, you must first obtain an
antlerless deer permit. This permit allows you to use
a legal weapon to take one antlerless deer—per
antlerless deer tag­—in the area and season speci-
fied on your permit.
You may not hunt on a Cooperative Wildlife
Management Unit (CWMU) unless you obtain an
antlerless deer permit for that CWMU.
If you obtain an antlerless deer permit, you may
not hunt during any other antlerless deer hunt or
obtain any other antlerless deer permit.
Additional opportunity
There is some flexibility if you are an antlerless
wildlife.utah.gov
deer permit holder who also possesses a permit to
hunt the following seasons:
• General archery buck deer
• General muzzleloader buck deer
• Limited-entry archery buck deer
• Limited-entry muzzleloader buck deer
If your buck deer permit and antlerless deer
permit are for the same area—and you use the
8 9
appropriate archery or muzzleloader equipment
specified for your current hunting season—you
may use your antlerless permit during the buck deer
season. However, you may not use your buck deer
permit during the antlerless season.
Antlerless elk hunting
Utah Code § 23-20-3 and Utah Admin. Rule R657-5-34
An “antlerless elk” is an elk without antlers or with
antlers five inches or shorter (R657-5-2(2)(b)).
To hunt antlerless elk, you must first obtain an
antlerless elk permit. This permit allows you to use
a legal weapon to take one antlerless elk in the area
and season specified on your permit.
You may not hunt on a Cooperative Wildlife
Management Unit (CWMU) unless you obtain an
antlerless elk permit for that CWMU.
You may obtain two elk permits each
year, and at least one of those must be an antlerless
elk permit. If you plan to obtain two elk permits,
please note that a hunter’s choice elk permit is con-
sidered a bull elk permit. You may apply for only one
antlerless elk permit in the antlerless drawing.
If you do not obtain an antlerless elk permit in
the drawing, you may be eligible to purchase up to
two remaining antlerless elk permits.
Additional opportunity
There is some flexibility if you are an antlerless
elk permit holder who also possesses a permit to
hunt the following seasons:
• General buck deer (archery, muzzleloader or
any legal weapon)
• General bull elk (archery, muzzleloader or any
legal weapon)
• Limited-entry buck deer (archery, muzzle-
loader or any legal weapon)
• Limited-entry bull elk (archery, muzzleloader
or any legal weapon)
If your buck deer or bull elk permit and your ant-
lerless elk permit are for the same area, you may use
your antlerless elk permit during your buck deer or
bull elk season. However, you may not use your buck
deer or bull elk permit during the antlerless season.
Doe pronghorn hunting
Utah Code § 23-20-3 and Utah Admin. Rule R657-5-36
A “doe pronghorn” is a pronghorn without horns or
with horns five inches or shorter (R657-5-2(2)(j)).
To hunt a doe pronghorn, you must first obtain
a doe pronghorn permit. This permit allows you to
use a legal weapon to take one doe pronghorn—per
doe pronghorn tag—in the area and season speci-
fied on your permit.
If you already have a 2010 pronghorn permit,
you may not apply for or obtain a doe pronghorn
Utah Antlerless Guidebook • 2010
permit or preference point.
Note: You may only obtain one pronghorn
permit—of any kind—during the 2010 season.
You may not hunt on a Cooperative Wildlife
Management Unit (CWMU) unless you obtain a doe
pronghorn permit for that CWMU.
Antlerless moose
hunting
Utah Code § 23-20-3 and Utah Admin. Rule R657-5-37
An “antlerless moose” is a moose without antlers or
with antlers shorter than its ears (R657-5-2(2)(c)).
To hunt antlerless moose, you must first obtain
an antlerless moose permit. This permit allows you
to use a legal weapon to take one antlerless moose
in the area and season specified on your permit.
If you already have a 2010 moose permit,
you may not apply for or obtain an antlerless moose
permit or bonus point.
Note: You may only obtain one moose permit—
of any kind—during the 2010 season.
You may not hunt on a Cooperative Wildlife
Management Unit (CWMU) unless you obtain an
antlerless moose permit for that CWMU.
wildlife.utah.gov
Collared big game
The Division has placed radio collars
on some antlerless big game. These collars
provide valuable data to biologists.
If possible, please avoid harvesting animals
that are wearing collars.
 OBTAINING A PERMIT
Utah Antlerless Guidebook • 2010
Your first, and possibly only, chance to obtain a Utah antlerless permit is through the
state’s antlerless drawing. This section describes the types of permits that are available and
identifies key dates. You’ll also find everything you need to know about the application
process, waiting periods, and bonus and preference points.
Antlerless permits
Utah Admin. Rule R657-62-19
You can apply for all of the following antlerless
permits in the 2010 drawing:
• One antlerless deer permit (except in areas
where two-doe permits are available)
• One antlerless elk permit
• One antlerless moose permit
• One doe pronghorn permit (except in areas
where two-doe permits are available)
Note: If you drew a pronghorn permit in the
2010 big game drawing, you may not apply for a doe
Multiple elk permits
Utah Code § 23-19-22 and Utah Admin. Rules R657-62-19 &
R657-5-34
You may obtain a maximum of two elk permits
each year—provided one or both of the
permits are antlerless—but you can only
apply for or obtain one antlerless elk permit in
the drawing. You may obtain two elk permits
in any one of the following combinations:
• One bull elk permit and one
antlerless permit
• One bull elk permit and one antlerless
elk control permit (to learn more about
elk control permits, please see the
information box on page 11)
• Two antlerless permits
• One hunter’s choice permit and one
antlerless permit
For the purposes of obtaining two elk permits,
a hunter’s choice elk permit is considered a bull

elk permit. An antlerless elk control permit is
considered an antlerless permit. Beginning July
21, 2010, eligible hunters may purchase addi-
tional antlerless elk permits after the drawing.
The permits will be available on a first-come,
first-served basis through license agents, Divi-
sion offices and online at wildlife.utah.gov.

pronghorn permit or preference point. Likewise, if you
drew a moose permit in the 2010 big game drawing,
you may not apply for an antlerless moose permit or
bonus point.
Antlerless application period
Utah Admin. Rules R657-62-19 & R657-42
This year, the application period opens
on June 1, 2010 and closes on June 17, 2010. Here’s
what you need to know in order to apply
for an antlerless permit, a bonus point or a
preference point:
• Before you can apply, you must have a valid
Utah hunting or combination license. If you
don’t already have one of these licenses, you
can buy one online when you apply.
• You can apply online at wildlife.utah.gov
until 11 p.m. on June 17.
If you need help with your online application,
please call any Division office before 6 p.m. on June
17, 2010. A Division employee will be available to
help you!
Antlerless application fees
Utah Admin. Rule R657-62-12
There is a nonrefundable $10 application fee
for each permit, bonus point or preference point
you apply for. Application fees, license fees and any
donations you’ve authorized will be charged to your
credit or debit card when you apply. Permit fees will
be charged after the drawing, if you are successful.
You can use American Express, Discover,
MasterCard and VISA credit or debit cards as pay-
ment, and they must be valid through August 2010.
You can also use a pre-paid credit card. If you have
questions about using a pre-paid credit card, check
with your financial institution for more information.
Antlerless drawing process
Utah Admin. Rule R657-62-19
Antlerless permits are drawn in the
following order:
1. Antlerless moose
2. Youth elk
3. Antlerless elk
4. Youth deer
5. Antlerless deer
6. Youth pronghorn
7. Doe pronghorn
Beginning July 21, any remaining permits will be
available on a first-come, first-served basis.
Sales final—exceptions
Utah Code § 23-19-38 and Utah Admin. Rule R657-42
Some hunters successfully obtain permits and
then realize—for one reason or another—that they
won’t be able to use those permits. In most cases,
the Division cannot refund the cost of the permit, but
there are some exceptions. The Division may provide
a refund under the following circumstances:
• The Division or the Utah Wildlife Board cancels
the hunt for which you obtained the permit.
• The Division determines that it collected a fee
from you by mistake. If you believe the Division
collected a fee from you by mistake, please
contact the agency. The Division has a commit-
tee that reviews these mistakes.
• You become ill or suffer an injury that prevents
you from participating in the hunt you
obtained a permit for. To receive a refund, you
must provide verification from a physician of
your illness or injury. You must also surrender
the permit before the season the permit was
issued for ends. You cannot receive a refund if
you hunted.
• If you’re a member of the United States Armed
Forces, or a public health or public safety
organization, you might be eligible for a
refund if you’re mobilized or deployed in the
interest of national defense or emergency, and
your mobilization or deployment prevents you
from participating in the hunting activity you
bought the license or permit for.
A refund may also be granted if the permit
recipient dies before they can participate in the hunt.
Elk control
Utah Antlerless Guidebook • 2010
permits available
Utah Admin. Rule R657-5-34
During the 2010 season, the Division wants
hunters to harvest as many antlerless elk as
possible from four hunting units in southeast-
ern Utah:
• Henry Mountains
• Nine Mile, Range Creek
• San Rafael, North
• San Juan, East of US-191
If you obtain a permit (including general
season) for bison, buck deer or bull elk on any
of the above units, you have the option of
purchasing an antlerless elk control permit.
The elk control permit allows you to harvest
an antlerless elk in the same unit where you’ll
already be hunting bison, deer or elk.
To obtain an antlerless elk control permit,
please visit a license agent or any Division
office beginning July 21, 2010.

Applying as a group
Utah Admin. Rule R657-62-7
Instead of applying as an individual hunter,
you and your friends and family can apply
together as a group.
Everyone in the group must apply during
the same online session—you cannot add
group members at a later date.
Both residents and nonresidents can apply
together. However, if you’re a Utah resident
and you decide to apply with a nonresident,
make sure nonresident permits are available
for each hunt your group is applying for. If
permits are not available for everyone in your
group, the entire group will not be allowed to
draw for that hunt unit.
Up to four hunters can apply together for
antlerless deer, antlerless elk or doe pronghorn
permits. Group applications are not accepted
for antlerless moose hunts.
Please remember that if you’re a youth,
and you want to be included among those who
draw for the antlerless permits reserved for
youth, you must apply as an individual hunter.

June 21: Deadline to withdraw your application
If you decide not to hunt, you can withdraw
your online permit application until 11 p.m. on
June 21, 2010.
Please remember that the fees you submitted
with your application are not refundable.
July 14: Drawing results available
You’ll be notified of the drawing results by
e-mail. Beginning July 14, you can also learn the
drawing results by calling 1-800-221-0659 or by
visiting wildlife.utah.gov.
If you draw a permit, you’ll receive your permit in
the mail in August.
Please be aware that if you receive your permit,
and then the credit card you used for payment is
refused, your permit becomes invalid and you may
not participate in the antlerless hunt. If this happens,
please call 1-800-221-0659 to resolve the problem.
July 21: Remaining antlerless permits available
Any antlerless permits remaining after the draw-
ing may be obtained beginning at 7 a.m. on July 21,
2010 at wildlife.utah.gov and from license agents
and Division offices. Remaining permits are available
on a first-come, first-served basis. You must have a
valid hunting or combination license to buy one of
these permits.
Note: The hours when license agents are open
for business vary; you should contact the agent you
plan to visit before July 21 to learn when they’re
open for business. A list of license agents is available
at wildlife.utah.gov/licenses/agents.php.
You may obtain a maximum of two elk permits.
Please see “Antlerless elk hunting” on pages 8–9.
Waiting periods
Utah Admin. Rule R657-62-19
Waiting periods keep successful applicants out of
the drawing for a few years. This gives unsuccessful
applicants a better chance at drawing a permit in the
Youth antlerless drawing
process
Utah Code § 23-19-22 and Utah Admin. Rules R657-62-19 &
R657-5-4
Twenty percent of the antlerless deer,
antlerless elk and doe pronghorn permits are
reserved for hunters who will be 18 years of
age or younger on Aug. 21, 2010.
If you’ll be 18 years of age or younger on
Aug. 21, you can participate in the youth draw-
ing by submitting an application as an individual

future. The antlerless moose hunt is the only antler-
less hunt with a waiting period.
Antlerless moose
Utah Admin Rule R657-62-19
The waiting period for antlerless moose is five
years. However, if you buy an antlerless moose
CWMU permit from a private landowner, the waiting
period does not apply.
Permits obtained after the
drawing
Utah Admin Rule R657-62-13
If you’re under a waiting period for a certain
species, you can still obtain any permit that remains
for that species after the drawing, but your waiting
period will start over.
For example, if you have two years left on your
antlerless moose waiting period, and you buy an
antlerless moose permit that remains available after
the drawing, you’ll begin a new five-year waiting
period. The new waiting period will prevent you from
applying for an antlerless moose permit for the next
five years.
Bonus points
Utah Admin Rule R657-62-8
Bonus points in the antlerless drawing
apply to antlerless moose only. A bonus point is
awarded for each unsuccessful application to hunt
antlerless moose.
If you do not want to hunt antlerless moose this
year, you may apply for a bonus point only by select-

Utah Antlerless Guidebook • 2010
before you apply
If you want to hunt on private property,
you must obtain written permission from the
landowner before you can hunt. Ideally, you
should have permission before you even apply
for a permit.
If you obtain written permission in
advance, you know you’ll be able to use the
permit if you draw it.
Of course, if you do hunt on private land,
you should always respect the landowners and
their properties.
You can show respect by following the
landowner’s rules and by picking up any litter
you see, even if it isn’t yours. And remember
to thank the landowners, if you happen to see
them while hunting.
The Division cannot guarantee access to
private land, and the agency does not have

application and paying the $10 application fee.
You must have a current Utah hunting or com-

moose bonus point.
If you are eligible for an antlerless moose permit,
you are eligible to apply for an antlerless moose

If you apply for both an antlerless moose permit
and a bonus point, your application will be rejected.
How your bonus points work in the drawing
Fifty percent (rounded down) of the permits for
each hunt unit number are reserved for applicants
with the most bonus points.
You receive one random drawing number for

Can you possess a
weapon?
It is illegal under Utah Code § 76-10-503 to
possess or use a firearm, muzzleloader, archery
tackle, or any other dangerous weapon if you:
• Have been convicted of or are under
indictment for any felony offense;
• Are on probation or parole for a
felony offense;
• Are on parole from a secure facility;
• Have been adjudicated delinquent
(juvenile) in the last seven years of an
offense, which if committed by an adult
would have been a felony;
• Are an unlawful user of a controlled
substance;
• Have been found not guilty by reason of
insanity for a felony offense;
• Have been found mentally incompetent

• Are an alien who is illegally in the
United States;
• Have been dishonorably discharged from

bonus point for the current year (just as if a permit
had not been drawn).
You cannot apply for a hunt or receive a bonus
point if either of the following conditions apply:
• You are currently under wildlife license suspen-
sion for big game hunting.
• You are currently under a waiting period for
the species you want to hunt.
The Division began issuing bonus points for
antlerless moose in 2006.
Preference points
Utah Admin. Rule R657-62-9
Preference points are used to ensure that ap-
plicants who are unsuccessful, or who apply for a
preference point in the drawing for antlerless deer,
antlerless elk and doe pronghorn, will have first
preference in the next year’s drawing for the respec-
tive permits.
If you do not want to hunt antlerless deer,
antlerless elk or doe pronghorn in the current year,
you may apply for a preference point by inserting the
appropriate hunt choice code on the application. You
will be charged a $10 application fee for every pref-
erence point you apply for (limit one per species).
The application period is June 1–17, 2010. You
must have a current Utah hunting or combination
license in order to apply for preference points.
If you are eligible for an antlerless deer, antler-
less elk or doe pronghorn permit, you are eligible to
apply for a preference point for that hunt.
You cannot apply for both a permit and a prefer-
ence point for the same species. A preference point
will not be issued if you are successful in drawing for
the respective permit.
You will not forfeit your preference points if
you obtain a permit that remains available after
the drawing.
The Division began issuing preference points
for antlerless deer, antlerless elk and doe pronghorn
in 2006.
How your preference points work in the
drawing
In the drawing, the antlerless deer, antlerless
elk and doe pronghorn applications are sorted into
groups by the number of preference points, from
highest to lowest. There’s a group for hunters with
four preference points, one for hunters with three
preference points and so forth. Within each group of
preference points, the applications are then sorted
from lowest to highest draw numbers. Permits are
awarded in order, based on the hunt choice selected.
Preference points are averaged and rounded
down when two or more applicants apply as a
group. For example, if hunter A with three preference
points and hunter B with zero preference points
apply as a group, the preference points are averaged
(1.5) and rounded down to one. Hunters with one
preference point will be considered only after all
groups or individuals with two or more preference
points and before all groups or individuals with zero
preference points.
Preventing the spread of
chronic wasting disease
Utah Admin. Rule R657-5-44
If an elk, mule deer or white-tailed deer has
been taken from an area in North America that
has been diagnosed with chronic wasting disease
(CWD), the following are the only parts of the
animal you may bring into Utah:
• Meat that is cut and wrapped, either com-
mercially or privately
• Quarters or other portions of meat (no
part of the spinal column or head may be
attached to the meat)
• Meat that is boned out
• Hides with no heads attached
• Skull plates with antlers attached, but the
skull plates must be cleaned of all meat
In a second example, if hunter A with one prefer-
ence point and hunter B with zero preference points
Utah Antlerless Guidebook • 2010
apply as a group, the preference points are averaged
(0.5) and rounded down to zero. This group with zero
preference points will be considered after all groups
or individuals with one or more preference points
have been considered.
You may surrender your antlerless deer, antler-
less elk or doe pronghorn permit before the season
opening date to reinstate your preference points,
including a preference point for the current year (just
as if a permit had not been drawn).
You cannot apply for an antlerless deer, antler-
less elk or doe pronghorn permit or a preference
point if you are currently under wildlife license
suspension for big game hunting.
and tissue
• Antlers with no meat or tissue attached
• Upper canine teeth (also known as buglers,
whistlers or ivories)
• Finished taxidermy heads
You can learn which areas in North
America have been diagnosed with CWD by
visiting wildlife.utah.gov/diseases/cwd/ or any
Division office.
If you’re not a resident of Utah, you can trans-
port harvested elk, mule deer and white-tailed
deer from areas that have CWD. However, you
may not leave any part of the harvested animal in
Utah, and you may not stay more than 24 hours in
the state. In addition, your deer or elk may not be
processed in Utah.

 CAN I RIDE THIS TRAIL?
Utah Antlerless Guidebook • 2010
Learn the rules of the area before you hop on your ATV/OHV
You love to get out every weekend and try a
new trail. Fortunately, Utah has plenty of public
land where you can legally ride your all-terrain and
off-highway vehicles (ATVs and OHVs).
Before you load up and hit the road, it’s
important to identify which government agency
oversees the trails you plan to visit. Then, it’s your
responsibility to learn and follow the rules
for that area.
There are many state and federal agencies that
own and manage public land, including Utah Divi-
sion of Wildlife Resources (DWR), Utah State Parks,
School and Institutional Trust Lands Administration
(SITLA), U.S. Forest Service (USFS), Bureau of Land
Management and others.
Some of these agencies have recently overhauled
their OHV regulations. For example, this year, the
USFS began implementing new rules for motorized
vehicle access in Dixie National Forest, and SITLA
is finalizing a new plan for ATV use on lands in the
La Sal Mountains. Other agencies are considering
changes to their current plans.
Wherever you plan to ride, make sure you
obtain the information you need for a fun, safe and
lawful trip.

Hunting and OHVs
If you are riding an ATV or OHV while hunting, be
considerate of other hunters and keep the following
rules in mind:
• Begin hunting only after parking your machine
at a designated parking area.
• Know and follow vehicle-use regulations for
your hunting unit, so you don’t ruin another
hunter’s trip.
• Stay on existing, authorized roads and trails.
• Ride ethically to protect natural resources,
wildlife habitat and your riding privileges.
• Do not carry loaded firearms on and/or shoot
from an OHV—it is illegal.
• Obey all of the age, helmet, out-of-state
permit and registration regulations available at
http://stateparks.utah.gov/ohv.
If you have general questions about riding
an OHV in Utah, call 1-800-648-7433 or visit

COOPERATIVE WILDLIFE MANAGEMENT UNITS
More than 60 percent of the rangelands that
Utah’s big game animals rely on in the winter are on
private land. Unfortunately, this vital winter range is
being threatened by human development.
Utah’s Cooperative Wildlife Management Unit
(CWMU) program provides incentives to preserve
these lands and make them good places for wildlife
for years to come.
How the program works
Public hunters who draw a CWMU permit can
hunt on private lands enrolled in the CWMU program.
In return, the landowners receive permits they can
market to hunters. Without the program, most of
these lands would remain closed to the public.
CWMUs comprise nearly two million acres of land
in Utah. They’ll provide more than 1,500 hunting per-
mits for antlerless game in 2010. About 82 percent of
those permits are available to Utah residents through
the state’s antlerless drawing.
How to participate
Before you can hunt on a CWMU, you must first
obtain a CWMU permit. This permit is only valid for
the species, sex and CWMU specified on the permit.
Only residents may apply for antlerless CWMU
permits through the drawing. Both residents and
If you want to hunt it tomorrow,
help us protect it today.
Turn In a Poacher
Utah Antlerless Guidebook • 2010
nonresidents can obtain CWMU permit vouchers
directly from the landowner or operator.
Note: CWMU landowner association members
and operators—and their spouses or dependant
children—may not apply in the drawing for
CWMU permits.
Obtain important information
If you draw a permit to hunt on a CWMU, you
must contact the CWMU operator to obtain hunting
dates, a map of the CWMU and a copy of the CWMU’s
rules. You can also find some helpful information
online at wildlife.utah.gov/cwmu.
Complaint process
If you wish to lodge a complaint against a
CWMU, you should contact the Division immediately.
Biologists and conservation officers can supply
you with a complaint form, or you can make the
complaint in person or over the telephone. Because
time is of the essence, you and the operator should
make every effort to resolve your issues before they
escalate to the Division level.
If your problem cannot be resolved locally, it
will be passed to the CWMU Advisory Committee for
review and action.
