Youth and Family Hunting
Opportunties
The Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission (FWC) offers
several opportunities for adults to take youths (under age 16)
hunting. Many WMAs allow youths, under adult supervision, to hunt
during archery, muzzleloading gun, general gun, small-game and
spring turkey seasons without having quota permits. Youths also may
hunt areas that require a quota permit if accompanied by a quota
permit holder, who is 18 or older, provided the quota permit holder
and youth share a single bag limit.
