Hunting Lottery to Open on August 1st

Ohio Archery Season is open from Sep 26, 2026, to Feb 7, 2027. The City of Wellston allows archery deer hunting on pre-approved City lands as a means of population control. Thinning the herd may minimize the potential for property damage associated with car/deer collisions and the animals feeding on your shrubs and trees. Hunters may apply for a deer hunting permit by entering the lottery and then submitting a hunting application.

Applications and related information can be found by visiting the following links, or you can visit the mayor’s office to pick up a packet.
