If you apply for an Antlerless Deer Permit by the July 16 deadline, you can check your ADP status any time between August 1 and December 31. Your odds of obtaining a permit are the same regardless of when you check your permit status.
Go to MassFishHunt and log into your account. Once logged in, you will see a message prompting you to check your ADP status.
After August 1, you can check the status of your permit by visiting a MassWildlife office or license agent location.
Starting in late September, surplus Anterless Deer Permits will be available for sale until they have all sold out in each Wildlife Management Zone. You can purchase a surplus permit through MassFishHunt, at authorized license vendor locations, or at a MassWildlife office.
Sometimes Antlerless Deer Permits are called ADPs, doe permits, or doe tags.
Antlerless Deer: Any deer without antlers or any deer with both antlers less than 3 inches long measured on a straight line from the center of the front base of the antler burr to the tip.
