[QUOTE="Southern Sportsman, post: 5584303, member: 10399"] This is not quiet true. During the meeting where regulation changes were discussed, one commissioner made a joke at the expense of one of his buddies/fellow commissioners. It was an inside joke, but from what I gathered, he had killed a jake the previous year thinking it was a gobbler —something I’ve done once in recent memory. So there was a joke about him not knowing the difference. He played along without missing a beat, so some people took the exchange serious. I like MS’s jake rule (no jakes except for youth hunters), but our commission allowed for one jake to accommodate youth, new hunters who wouldn’t qualify as youth but may have never killed a turkey, and to give everyone a mulligan if there is a jake mistaken for a gobbler. I’m ok with it. Now, bearded hens are a different story. There is absolutely no good excuse for them to be legal targets. Especially in the spring. [/QUOTE]
