Hunting Safety during the Spring Turkey Season
- Identify a turkey’s head and beard before aiming.
- Never shoot at sound or movement. Assume it is another hunter until you can clearly see a turkey’s head or beard.
- Wear hunter orange when walking through the woods.
- Use hunter orange to identify your hunting location.
- Wrap a bagged turkey or decoy in hunter orange when transporting it.
- Dress defensively. Never wear red, white, blue or black while hunting turkey.
- Know the effective range of your gun.
- Be sure of your target and what lies beyond.
If you happen to be involved in a firearms-related hunting accident, the law mandates that you identify yourself and render assistance. Failure to do so results in a Class A misdemeanor.
