The ODWC zone layer puts Dewey OLAP tract H004 in antlerless Zone 7 (Muzzleloader 4, gun 4). Zone lines follow roads, so near a boundary the ODWC antlerless zone map decides. The season cap is six deer combined, two antlered at most; 3 inches of antler makes a deer antlered. The Special Northwest Zone takes in Dewey County, but OLAP rules keep elk hunters off Dewey OLAP tract H004. Dewey County is an open fall gun turkey county. The pheasant area takes in the part north of SH 51. Dewey County lies wholly or partly west of I-35, where sandhill crane and jackrabbit seasons apply.
