INDIANAPOLIS - It’s deer hunting season and firearms season is just one month away. 

DNR launched a new license system last December. The new system is accessible at GoOutdoorsIN.com. DNR anticipates very high traffic to this system during the next several weeks, especially November 14-16.

Hunters are encouraged to log in soon, verify their personal information, and familiarize themselves with the new site. This leaves time for hunters to reach out to DNR or visit a retailer if they encounter issues online. 

The following resources are available to help hunters learn the new license system:

  • Help section of GoOutdoorsIN.com – bottom left of the home page (no need to log in)
  • How to link a youth account: PDF and video 
  • For questions about checking in game, one’s online account, or license-purchasing errors, call 317-232-4200 or 877-463-6367 or email INHuntFish@dnr.IN.gov
