Once again it is time for public input on the seasons. Any new ideas or suggestions list them below.

I would like to see archery for the month of October, Rifle for the month of November and Muzzleloader for the month of December.

2 buck and 4 doe limit per hunter per year.

Keep the 3 buck limit. Keep the seasons as they are but instead of closing the season at the first of January let there be an extended archery until end of January.

Make sure you email them in. They won't be looked at on here.

Open up some of the safety zones around Percy priest to archery only. Some of those areas are pretty big and are not used by the public very much.

Legalize baiting by permit only. $49.00 not included in the sportsman license.
 
Re: TWRA Requesting Public Input for 2013-14 Seaso

Just sent in my suggestions..
(1) earn a buck tag in unit L to get the doe numbers down some more.
(2) have an early season muzzleloader hunt the 3rd weekend of October, like a Friday Saturday Sunday hunt. Or have a early season primitive weapon hunt the 3rd week of October to give those of us who don't now hunt an oppurtunity to Hun the early season..

I think leave it like it is except for one of the 3 bucks must have 3 points on a side.

Shorten gun season...say 3 weeks. Make a late muzzy season of a week or two. Make it 1 buck.
 
Re: TWRA Requesting Public Input for 2013-14 Seaso

1. Keep seasons the same.
2. Allow people that own their own property hunt during the youth days.
3. Keep three buck limit the way it is. Not so many does in unit L.
4. No shooting hens during fall turkey season, especially 6 hens like in some counties.
5. The most important, TELL MY BOSS TO LET ME HUNT MORE! lol.
 
I'm pretty happy with the seasons and limits for my area. Although, if I could have anything I wanted, I would open MZ Nov. 1st instead of linking it to two weeks before the opening of gun.

Mandatory 3 day weekends during the month of November (in addition to any existing vacation) for anyone who purchases a sportsman's license.

Any dispute between two hunters should be immediately settled by a arm wrestling match. A TWRA officer will show up with a AAA (American Armwrestling Assoic) certified table and make the official call on the match.

Amen!

I beleive the woods I hunt have to many spikes. They are everywhere. Every time I try to draw back on what I thought was a doe I could see these little horns. they are also stupid. They run around the woods acting all jacked up on mountain dew or something. We need to put a stop to this kind of deer. You should have to kill a spike before shooting a buck larger than 7 pts.

Also what site do we actualy give input to the TWRA

Legalize .22lr and mag for turkey season. I read about a western state like this once, and it sounded cool. Necessitates head shots

seen a video on YouTube of a fall hunt with an air gun, I think it was California, head shot to a gobbler and the bird was dead on the ground. I'd love to be able to kill one with my air rifle. Although I'd honestly want a better air rifle for that purpose. Maybe TWRA would consider legalizing air rifles that meet certain specs - minimum FPS maybe and should have a rifled barrel too? Because your beginners daisy BB gun might just wound turkeys or not be accurate enough past 10-15 yds... Just a thought. I'd love to see air rifles legalized for turkeys in tn.
