Hunting dates are scheduled for Saturdays and Sundays from Sept. 25 to Dec. 19, and approximately 15 hunters (and partners) will be drawn.

Hunters are required to complete a mandatory orientation prior to the hunting dates. Selected hunters will be notified of the orientation date prior to the start of the hunting season. Permits are transferable up to the date of the orientation session, but not after. All rules and regulations that apply during Ohio’s deer-archery hunting season also apply for TRC property hunts, as well as rules that are assigned to this special controlled deer hunt.

This hunt is a partnership with the Division of Wildlife. Visit wildohio.gov for more information about hunting seasons and regulations.

Ohio Transportation Research Center, Inc. (TRC) is holding a lottery drawing in August for special white-tailed deer hunting opportunities during the 2021-22 season. These controlled hunts will take place on TRC-managed property in Logan and Union counties.

Interested applicants may send an email to [email protected] to request a registration card by Friday, Aug. 20 no later than 3 p.m. Applicants are required to be at least 18 years old, have a valid 2021-22 Ohio hunting license, and have a valid deer permit. Youth hunters may participate in the hunt but are not eligible for the drawing. TRC staff will conduct the drawing by random electronic selection; the in-person drawing will no longer be held. Selected hunters will be notified via email no later than Thursday, Aug. 26.
