The 2025 Missouri deer season will run from November 7th to November 20th. The daily bag limit is one deer of either sex. Hunters may also take one antlerless deer during the late youth season, which runs from October 17th to October 20th.
The Missouri Department of Conservation (MDC) sets the deer hunting regulations each year based on the population of deer in the state. The MDC estimates that there are approximately 1.1 million deer in Missouri. Deer hunting is an important part of the state’s hunting tradition and helps to manage the deer population.
