Starting in spring 2007 Wisconsin will have its first youth spring turkey hunt. This year’s hunt will occur on April 7 - 8, 2007. In the future, youth hunts will occur each year on the weekend prior to the opening of the first spring turkey hunting period. The hunt will be open to youth 12 through 15 years of age (both residents and non-residents) who possess a hunter education certificate of accomplishment and a spring turkey license, stamp, and a valid carcass tag for spring 2007. The bag limit is one bearded or male turkey during the two-day youth hunt.
A full set of regulations for the youth hunt will be available in the 2007 Spring Turkey Hunting Regulations. More information can be found on the DNR Web site.
