About Hunt Opener

Hunt Opener lists hunting season dates by state, zone and weapon, in one table per state and species, with the official source and the date each entry was checked.

Who runs it

Hunt Opener is built and maintained by Juan Cruz, an independent web publisher. He handles the research, writing and site development himself.

What this site is

• A reference for season dates, organized so you can see every zone and weapon at once.
• A set of tools built on those dates, such as what is open this week and when the next season opens.

What this site is not

• It is not a government site and is not affiliated with any state wildlife agency or the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
• It does not sell licenses or permits. License links go to the official state site.
• It is not legal advice. The state regulations are the final word.

How it is funded

The site is funded by display ads and affiliate links. If you buy something through an affiliate link, the site may earn a commission at no extra cost to you. Advertisers and affiliate programs have no say in the dates or the content.

Corrections

If you find a date that does not match the official regulations, write to [email protected] with the state, species and a link to the source. Corrections are checked against the official source before they are published.
