Utah · Deer · 2026

This is every Utah deer season and the day it opens, the whole state at once. A pin turns it into a day-by-day calendar for one general-season deer unit, with your own tags marked against it.

Utah deer seasons, 2026

Utah’s 2026 deer seasons run August 15, 2026 to November 30, 2026, and what is open on a given day depends on the general-season deer unit your stand is in. Drop a pin above and this app reads the general-season deer 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 Utah Division of Wildlife Resources digest. It is a planning aid, not the law: check the digest before you hunt.
