"Individuals may only have two permits that allow the harvest of a buck per year." The guide adds, in italics, that the Commission was to consider cutting that from two to one at its June 2026 meeting — check before you buy a second. A Special Landowner or Limited Landowner permit counts against the two. Beyond unit quotas there is no individual limit on antlerless permits at all. In ten units a hunter may hold only one permit that allows a mule deer buck, though they may hold permits in other units and statewide permits as well. Big Game Guide, printed pp. 11 and 14-15.

You

What you pay, and in several states what you are even offered.

Residency

Nebraska Game and Parks Commission prices residents and non-residents differently, and sells some tags to only one of them.

Tags and permits

Good anywhere in the state.

Tags for a unit

Drop a pin first — these are sold per deer management unit, and the app will not guess which one you meant.

Nothing to tick here yet.

Nothing in your wallet yet

Tick what you hold and the calendar starts answering for you rather than for everybody. Nebraska Game and Parks Commission sells them at the link below.

Prices are what the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission printed for 2026, and are here to help you recognise a tag rather than to sell you one.

Nebraska deer seasons, 2026

Nebraska’s 2026 deer seasons run September 1, 2026 to January 15, 2027, and what is open on a given day depends on the deer management unit your stand is in. Drop a pin above and this app reads the deer management unit off it, then answers the rest from there — the dates, the legal arms, the bag limits and the shooting hours, transcribed page by page from the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission digest. It is a planning aid, not the law: check the digest before you hunt.
