Wisconsin Fall Turkey Application Deadline Thursday, Aug 1st.

[DonBo]

Next Thursday, August 1st, is the deadline to apply for the 2013 fall turkey permit drawing. Permit applications must be submitted by midnight, and can be purchased from authorized license agents, over the Internet through the DNR's Online Licensing Center, or by phone toll free at 1-877-945-4236. Application and license fee information can be found by going to http://dnr.wi.gov/, keyword "license".

There will be 96,700 wild turkey permits available to hunters for the fall 2013 turkey hunting season, the same number of permits as offered in 2012. Any fall turkey permits remaining after the initial drawing will go on sale beginning at 10 a.m. on Saturday, Aug. 24. Leftover fall turkey permits will be sold by zone until sold out or the season ends. Hunters who receive a fall turkey permit in Zones 1-5 will be able to fill their unused permits during the extended season in the zone for which they were issued.

The fall turkey season runs from Sept. 14 through Nov. 21 for all seven of Wisconsin’s turkey management zones. In addition, an extended fall turkey season for Zones 1 through 5 will run from Dec. 2 to Dec. 31.

There's any number of ways to whack a fall bird, decoys can help. It's best just to set up near where you know they are roosted, or where you think they will roost.

Not all that familiar with the youth license, but I'd assume you'll get conformation in the mail. You can probably check on-line as the season gets closer.

Good luck!
