Open Enrollment for the 2022 Deer Management Archery Program

The Sheridan Police Department, in conjunction with the Wyoming Game and Fish Department will be continuing the Deer Management Archery Program for the 2022 hunting season. The City of Sheridan implemented the program in 2007. According to a media release from the Sheridan PD, anyone interested in bow hunting within the city limits must first register in person at the Sheridan Police Department. Any member of the department can assist residents with the registration.

The Deer Management Archery Program is a bow hunting only opportunity and people choosing to hunt privately owned land must first secure permission from the landowner. Additional information regarding what areas within the city limits are open for bow hunting can be provided during registration. Hunting area maps can be found here. Wyoming Game and Fish Regulations apply to the Deer Management Archery Program. This program is important as it helps maintain a healthy deer population and helps mitigate deer conflict with people, pets and property.
