Deep Camp Checksheet Program
The Check Sheet Program lets deer and turkey camp members check their harvest taken on their own (or leased) lands. More than 3,000 camps are enrolled in the program. Enrollment is open between May 1 and August 1.
Requirements for the program are:
- 1. The camp must own or lease 200 or more acres;
- 2. The camp must have six or more hunting members; and
- 3. Wildlife officers have the authority to refuse to allow deer camps to participate in this program if violations occur.
Call (501) 223-6430 for more information about the Check Sheet Program.
Deer Management Assistance Program (DMAP)
The Deer Management Assistance Program (DMAP) provides technical assistance to landowners and hunting clubs to improve deer populations. Biologists work with land managers to assess habitat quality and the potential to support a healthy, well-balanced deer herd. They evaluate historic, present and future deer management efforts and meet with clubs and land managers to explain options and expected results. They also train club members to correctly collect data on harvested and observed deer.
For more information, contact a Wildlife Regional Office nearest the private land or club land to be managed and ask about DMAP.
