at least the guys killing them will actually be turkey hunters....

the deer hunters will be out of the woods.

that being said, what's the justification for extending the season?  virginia isn't exactly crawling with turkeys like some states.  more hens will be harvested and that's not positive for the population.  my initial reaction is  ???

We got a fall turkey season on private land in certain special parts of Florida that goes to the end of January --Hmmmm.....

Brian, Va is liable to not be crawling with tags before long either. The pot is stirring on deer and turkey. I would welcome a cut back for 3-5 years. I think it would help both. I will see if I can get the latest in the next couple weeks. May not see a change this season.

I called up many gobbling turkeys in late January and February when the population was high in Arkansas in the late 90's and early 00's. Archery season did go from Oct - Feb. If the there are a lot of gobblers there will be a lot of competition in Jan and Feb. Fun, Fun, Fun.
