Not sure where to ask this..

I am fairly new to turkey hunting. My aunt has a farm, and has turkey on it. I would like to go up there to kill some seeing they are causing a problems when they seed.
Am I only allowed to kill toms/jakes. Or may I kill hens as well seeing they are a nuisance for them and their source of income...

During the spring, only bearded birds. Bearded hens make a very low percentage of the hen population. Jakes and toms are fair game, make sure the bird has a beard before shooting. During the fall season, if your county is listed under fall turkey hunting in the guide, you can kill X amount of birds, either sex, beard or no.

Just looked in the hunting guide for you - Blount county has a fall limit of 2 birds. They can be hens if you like

Thank you cat man. Her farm is in north Knox county though. But thank you very much for clarifying for me

Can multiple tom/Jake be killed at once

Can multiple tom/Jake be killed at once

in the spring, only one bird per day. In the fall, no daily limit as long as you don't exceed the county's bag limit.

Again, thank you for your help catman! Wish I lived closer your way so you could get me on some birds!
I've watched just about all your youtube stuff! haha
