OUTDOORSMEN in a US state are bracing for a major licensing change which could delay them from starting the season.
Several emergency rules have been enacted, including one threatening to take precious days of deer hunting away from some marksmen.

Visiting hunters looking to target deer in Oklahoma must now wait two days before receiving their licenses if they purchase them in-season.
This rule, along with the two other emergency regulations, will be made a permanent addition to state hunting guidelines later this year.

The second emergency rule aims to establish a license requirement for outfitters and guides leading waterfowl and sandhill crane hunts.
The third creates guidelines for releasing deer on private property as part of the Chronic Wasting Disease Genetic Improvement Program.
