Hunters in Kentucky are gearing up for the General Spring Turkey Hunting Season, which opens up this Saturday.

The General Spring Turkey Hunting Season will run for 23 days, from April 12 until May 4. The statewide spring turkey harvest limit is two legal turkeys, which Kentucky Fish and Wildlife says “is defined as a turkey that is male or has a visible beard.”

The KFW Wild Turkey Program says an unusually high number of younger birds were found during winter netting and leg banding research, which aligns with productive hatching numbers in 2024. This year’s spring season should be favorable for younger or inexperienced hunters as younger birds are typically easier targets.

Turkey hunters are encouraged to visit the KFW’s Spring Hunting Guide, which has updated information on current regulations. Hunters may purchase their licenses and permits through the MyProfile portal on fw.ky.gov.

The commonwealth has many options for hunting on public lands. Go to the Wildlife Management Area and Public Lands Search under the Hunters tab on the KFW website to find a property near you.
