OUTDOORS: Youth hunters will get first shots of season
The Texas Parks and Wildlife Department has announced there will be a special youth-only hunting season toward the end of October.
The special weekend will be Oct. 25-26.
Hunters 16 years old or younger are allowed to harvest white-tailed deer and Rio Grande turkey.
The youth-only waterfowl season in the north and south duck zones is for licensed youth 15 years of age or younger.
The High Plains Mallard Management Unit’s waterfowl youth hunting dates are Oct. 18-19.
General season bag limits for the county hunted apply during the youth-only weekend.
Additional restrictions may apply in certain areas, so check the 2014-15 Outdoor Annual for hunting regulations before heading afield.
Youth who hunt on TPWD lands must be accompanied by a supervising adult 18 years of age or older who possesses the required annual public hunting permit, a valid hunting license and any required stamps and permits.
