NEW HUNT REGULATIONS NOW ONLINE
Tennessee’s new hunting regulations aren’t yet available in
printed form but you can obtain them online by logging onto to TWRA’s
website at
www.tnwildlife.org
The four-color brochure will be available at local
license agents in mid-August but you can get the scoop on season dates and
changes if you have access to a computer.
There are several changes which will affect many
hunters during this year’s seasons. Some of those changes are as follows:
-
Fall deer and turkey quota permits
will be distributed through a first-come, first served at license agents
rather than the traditional draw system.
-
Deer and fall turkey seasons were
simplified: –– All traditional season openers remain unchanged but
muzzleloader is now one continuous 14-day season in November –– Fall
turkey is one continuous 12-day season in December
-
The raccoon units were consolidated so
there is now consistent season and bags limits across the state.
-
Two new WMAs were added: Skinner
Mountain WMA in Fentress County and Luper Mountain WMA in Cumberland
County.
-
Unit B deer seasons follow the same
season dates as Units A and L.
-
Annual buck limit is now three
statewide which eliminates the two buck restriction in Unit B.
-
Added Gibson County to fall turkey
season and expanded fall turkey opportunities in Carroll, Clay, Henry,
Madison, and Weakley counties.
-
Increased deer hunting opportunities
in Chester, Haywood, and Henderson Counties by moving these counties to
Unit L.
-
Increase gun antlerless deer
opportunities in Crockett, Dyer, Hamilton, Hardin, Lake, Lauderdale,
Marion, and Tipton counties.
-
Hunters not able to find an open check
station can now check-in their big game harvest through the internet at
www.twracheckin.com
Hunters
are reminded to obtain a copy of the guide and read it thoroughly before
going afield each year.
