Youth Turkey Hunt Weekend
In 2011 the
FWC established a brand new Youth Turkey Hunt
Weekend on private lands in order to encourage adults to take
kids hunting. This special weekend was all about the kids.
As it turns out, the inaugural Youth Turkey Hunt Weekend was a
huge success! So the 2-day season for youth will include public as
well as private land beginning in spring 2012. A total of 78 of our
wildlife management areas will now be included among the youth
turkey hunting opportunities.
Learn exactly which areas
you can take a youth spring turkey hunting in 2012.
