I have a question about the youth turkey hunt next Saturday. My oldest grandson has a junior license but has turned 17 since he purchased it. The book says a junior license holder (16 and under) are eligible to hunt. Is it one or the other or both? I read as both. Thanks I’m advance

It sure does not make it very clear, does it. But it does say Jr hunters. The part about "under 17 yrs old" sounds like it applies to only mentored hunters without a jr. lic.

My guess it's age restricted, not license restricted.
I'd call the PGC regional office

He's 17 but holds a junior license he's legal to hunt youth day. He was 16 at the time he got his license.

I just called the PGC, as long as the person has a junior license, they can participate.

No matter the reason thank for the answer I do like you, but I'd prefer to be accurate when it comes to information so your grandson doesn't get busted. If you get busted for something tho, I'm fine with that. 😊

I really don't have much interest in killing a turkey but if I had a kid to take out, I think I would enjoy trying to call a gobble in for him. The first time a had a gobbler sounding off right in front of me was one of the most exciting hunts I've had.

I have mixed feelings about going to kill a bird. I'm weighing.....turkey hunt.....go fly fishing.....turkey hunt.....go fly fishing.

My 8 year old Grandson has absolutely ZERO interest in hunting. I may get a slight rise of interest with him in shooting my air rifle. That's ok certainly no pressure coming from me...the world doesn't revolve around hunting. He does love crabbing & fishing though and is already hounding me...."PAP....when are we going crabbing?"
