All parties 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 this 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 when one registers. You can also find these hunting area maps on the City of Sheridan website. Click on "Government", then "Police Department", "Media Release" and "Deer Management Program".

Remember, all 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.

Thank you and good luck this fall!

IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, PLEASE CALL THE SHERIDAN POLICE DEPARTMENT AND ASK FOR THE PUBLIC INFORMATION OFFICER – (SHERIDAN) 672-2413
