Due to Covid, the Webb gun lottery was not available in 2020. The Webb gun lottery will be available this year, and it is the hunters responsibility to adhere to any necessary Covid precautions in order to protect themselves, other hunters, and DNR staff. If selected, you will be eating in the same room as other hunters and be lodging in the same room with other hunters not on your application. DNR reserves the right to assign rooms for lodging in order to minimize mixing of hunters. If you are not comfortable being housed with other hunters, you can select the non-draw option to just purchase a preference point for the year.

The S.C. Department of Natural Resources (SCDNR) is now accepting applications for 2021 deer lottery hunts on public lands through 5 p.m. on August 15. The Multi-site, Unrestricted Multi-site, Webb Gun, and Webb Archery lotteries operate independently and maintain separate preference points.

The “unrestricted” multi-site lottery application will cover hunting opportunities on Bear Island, Donnelley, and Bonneau Ferry WMA with no antler restrictions at these sites.

The other multi-site lottery application includes Belfast WMA, Botany Bay WMA, Hamilton Ridge WMA, Palachoucola WMA, and Wateree River Heritage Preserve. Antler restrictions apply to these multi-site locations.
