As the law reads now since HB1249:
Landowner Permission
Hunters must obtain permission to enter any posted or occupied land or land primarily devoted to farming, ranching or forestry purposes.
Nothing in this guide shall be interpreted as permitting hunting or allowing access into any area, public or private, without permission from the owners or custodian as required by law. All persons are prohibited from entering land owned by another without permission for the sole purpose of retrieving domestic livestock or other animals.
Consent is not valid for more than one year, unless the owner, lessee, or occupant specifically grants consent for a specified period of time.
The reports are starting to increase on game wardens enforcing this law (catching a hunter on private ground- contacting the landowner and then prosecuting) There is one report of a game warden contacting the landowner which lived out of state.
PLEASE BE AWARE OF THIS CHANGE EFFECTIVE TOMORROW:Effective Nov. 1, persons caught fishing or hunting without permission (poaching) may lose their hunting and fishing privileges in Oklahoma and the 37 other states that are part of the Interstate Wildlife Violators Compact
This change effective tomorrow will definitely hurt the honest man. We have two options for change:
1)Make an educated vote on Nov. 6th
2)Contact your representative immediately
