These are our season windows. NDOW sets the official season dates, hunt numbers, and quotas by commission regulation, and they can differ by unit group and change from year to year. Check the current Nevada big game regulations, including CR 25-07 Amendment 2 for the 2026–2027 seasons, before you apply or plan travel.
Looking by place instead? See the units we hunt: Unit 231, 221–223, 241–245, 111–115, and 131–134.
