The hardest part about elk hunting isn’t actually the hunt itself; the real challenge is winning those pesky lotteries. Many lotteries allow applicants to enter multiple times–for a fee of course. This lottery is definitely worth the fee of multiple entries.  

The Super Tag 

Many hunters vie for the opportunity of scoring an elk, but fierce competition means that only a select few will ever get the opportunity. But this year, the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission has upped the ante for this year’s lottery by offering a Super Tag.  

The Nebraska Elk Hunting Super Tag Lottery is a thrilling annual event that allows lucky winners to participate in not just one, but all five of Nebraska’s elk hunting seasons. These seasons include archery, muzzleloader, and firearm hunts, spanning from September through December. This comprehensive package ensures that winners have ample opportunities to pursue their trophy elk.

What Makes Elk Hunting Appealing

What makes this lottery even more appealing is its contribution to conservation efforts. Revenue generated from the sale of these tags goes directly to supporting wildlife conservation, habitat enhancement, and management of Nebraska’s elk population. By participating, hunters are not only pursuing their passion but also actively contributing to the preservation of this remarkable species.

The odds of winning may be challenging, but the rewards are immeasurable. Winners get to experience the thrill of the hunt in Nebraska’s diverse landscapes, from the rugged Pine Ridge region to the picturesque Sandhills. Plus, the memories created during this adventure are bound to last a lifetime.

The Super Tag will offer selected hunters the opportunity to hunt not only elk, but also deer, antelope and turkey. Non-residents are eligible for this big game lottery, with each entry being $10. Hunters can submit multiple entries so long as they are in by the July 2nd deadline.
