Fish and Wildlife Commission Sets Hunting and Trapping Seasons

It looks like they're finally getting rid of the type 94 licenses to kill does on private land. That alone will probably save more bucks than reducing the buck limit.

I am pleased with the turkey season and limits placed !!Maybe this will help the turkey's comeback!

I like all the changes regarding the seasons. Little steps that could help. Also like type 94 not being required. I do think that will save a few bucks and a few bucks lol.

Looks like two added weeks of deer hunting in the CWD zone plus an extra buck tag. Nice

They truly are going to ruin deer hunting and taking two weeks away from small game hunters in Tennessee in the CWD zone. And yes, it is essentially taking two weeks away because you are not small game hunting on private land if deer hunters are in the woods.

Looks like the commission has that agenda

Kill them all

Sad they haven't learned anything from these failed regulations in other states.

Looks fine to me, I wonder if the 2 weeks of extended season for rifle in CWD zone will be like it has, where we get to use a rifle during ML, or if it will be tacked on at the end instead.

When we bought our place in Humphreys County in '87, we had a significant turkey population in fall, but not in spring. Now, 35 years later, we have a significant turkey population in fall, but not in spring. No change.

Sounds like you need to be lease hunting a couple miles in any direction.

Thankfully, I don't turkey hunt. But yes, in spring all the birds are down in the big adjoining ag bottoms. In fall, they're all up in the ridge-country after the acorn crop.

The same thing happens on our lease in Humphreys county.
