From the Iowa DNR:

Deer Hunters Encouraged to Buy License Soon

The Iowa Department of Natural Resources expects to sell up to 40,000 additional resident licenses for the first shotgun deer hunting season that opens Dec. 4. With only a few days remaining until opening day, hunters who have not yet purchased a license are encouraged to do so sooner, rather than later.

"There is no quota for resident any deer licenses, but hunters can avoid lines or other last minute delays if they purchase their license soon," said Dale Garner, chief of the DNR's Wildlife Bureau.

As of Tuesday morning, more than 25,000 any deer licenses have been sold for the first shotgun season. Iowa averages between 60,000 and 70,000 participants who hunt during the first shotgun season.

Licenses are available online at www.iowadnr.gov or at more than 900 locations across the state. Locations for the license vendors can be found by clicking on the Licenses link in the navigation column on the left, then clicking on Where to Buy a License on the following page. Vendors are listed alphabetically by county.





 
I always buy my licenses months in advance BUT.... If you want some good entertainment- go to Wal-mart for some groceries the night before opening day and walk past sporting goods section, you'll see a herd of frustrated guys in long lines with someone behind counter that has no clue what has just happened. It's darn funny! :)
 
No clue is right. I had to enter my info & get my own tags off the new touch screen system myself this year.
 
One thing to keep in mind, if you ever think you might want to change from 1st to 2nd season or vice versa for work or personal related issues do not have that tag listed on with your bow tag. Last year something came up at work and I needed to switch seasons but I could not because 1 licesnse on the tag was currently open (bow). If you get them early have them on seperate tags.
