Youth Gun Deer Hunt Oct. 11-12 in Wisconsin
September 17, 2008
![Luke Lysdahl, 13 yrs old, shot his first buck in Burnett County, during the 2006 Youth Deer Hunt. Father, Kevin Lysdahl, said it was "One well placed shot at 130 yards"! Nice job, Luke!](http://www.outdoorcentral.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2008/09/20080917004.jpg "Luke Lysdahl, 13 yrs old, shot his first buck in Burnett County, during the 2006 Youth Deer Hunt. Father, Kevin Lysdahl, said it was \\"One well placed shot at 130 yards\\"! Nice job, Luke!")
MADISON — The seventh annual Wisconsin Youth Gun Deer Hunt will be Oct. 11-12, 2008. This special hunt was established to get youth involved in hunting under conditions with low hunting pressure and in a safe and educational setting.
“In addition to giving youths their own opportunity to experience the traditions of deer hunting in Wisconsin, there is more time for the mentor to share skills and teach their charges how to hunt safely and ethically,” says Keith Warnke, deer and bear ecologist for the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.
Youth hunters ages 12 to 15 who have successfully completed a hunter education program and possess a gun deer hunting license may participate in this hunt. Youths must be accompanied by an adult 18 years of age or older. Adult mentors may not gun hunt for deer and cannot accompany more than two youth hunters.
The hunt will be held in all deer management units (DMUs) statewide, except state parks and non-quota units.
In DMUs designated as Earn-a-Buck (EAB) and in chronic wasting disease (CWD) management units, youth hunters are exempt from the earn-a-buck requirements to tag one buck using their “Gun Buck Deer Carcass Tag” during the youth gun deer hunt. This exemption only applies to the two day youth hunt. During all other deer hunting seasons, youth hunters are required to follow earn-a-buck requirements in DMUs designated as EAB or CWD.
Qualified hunters may harvest one buck deer using their only Gun Buck Deer Carcass Tag and additional antlerless deer with the appropriate carcass tag.
All deer, turkey and small game hunters, with the exception of waterfowl hunters, are required to meet blaze orange requirements on these two days. For more information on the youth hunt, check the 2008 Wisconsin Deer Hunting Regulations pamphlet.

Youth Chukar Hunt Was a Hoot in Utah
September 12, 2008
Five hunts held on Sep. 6
Nearly 20 youngsters enjoyed hunting chukars recently at the Gordon Creek Wildlife Management Area west of Price.
The Gordon Creek WMA was one of five sites in Utah that hosted special youth chukar hunts on Sep. 6.
Youngsters bag a few birds
The Division of Wildlife Resources stocked the Gordon Creek WMA with 150 birds just before the hunt. Even with that many chukars on the ground, the quail-sized birds proved to be pretty cagey. They ran far ahead of the shot shooters and often flushed out of range, or to one side of the shooters or the other.
Hundreds of shot shell blasts later, the youngsters had bagged only a fraction of the birds stocked on the WMA.
The important thing was that everyone had a great time and did a lot of wing shooting. Every boy and girl was able to shoot and take home one or more birds.
It’s your turn: chukar hunt opens Sep. 27
Most of the birds that eluded the youth hunters should be available on or near the Gordon Creek WMA when Utah’s general chukar hunt opens on Sep. 27. The hunt runs through Feb. 15 across Utah. The daily bag limit is five birds.
Big game hunters: grab your shotguns!
To hunt upland game, you must have a hunting license or a combination license.
“If you’re a big game hunter, you probably already have one of these two licenses,” says Brent Stettler, regional conservation outreach manager for the DWR. “If you do, you don’t need to wait until your big game hunt starts to get out and enjoy some hunting. You can grab your shotgun and start chasing chukars on Sep. 27!”

Youth Waterfowl is Sept. 20-21 in North Dakota
September 8, 2008
North Dakota’s two-day youth waterfowl season is Sept. 20-21. Legally licensed resident and nonresident youth waterfowl hunters age 15 and younger may hunt ducks, geese, coots and mergansers statewide.
The daily bag limit and species restrictions for the youth season are the same as for regular duck and goose seasons.
Resident and qualifying nonresident youth waterfowl hunters must possess a general game and habitat license and a fishing, hunting and furbearer certificate. (Nonresidents from states that do not provide a reciprocal licensing agreement for North Dakota residents must purchase the nonresident waterfowl license package.) In addition, all youth hunters must be Harvest Information Program certified, and youth ages 12 and older need to have passed a certified hunter education course. Hunters age 15 and younger do not need a federal duck stamp.
Hunters who purchase a license through the North Dakota Game and Fish Department can easily get HIP certified. Otherwise, hunters must call 888-634-4798, or log on to the Game and Fish website at gf.nd.gov, and record the HIP number on their fishing, hunting and furbearer certificate.
Hunters are reminded to HIP register in each state for which they are licensed before hunting migratory game birds.
Shooting hours for the youth waterfowl season are one-half hour before sunrise to sunset. An adult at least 18 years of age must accompany the resident youth hunter into the field, and a licensed adult is required to accompany a nonresident youth hunter. The two-day weekend hunt does not count against a nonresident adult hunter’s 14-day regular season waterfowl dates.

Javelina Hunting Clinics Offered by Arizona Game and Fish
September 5, 2008
PHOENIX — Getting started in something new is always hard, be it a new hobby, skilled trade or other interest. The same holds true for hunting, prompting the Arizona Game and Fish Department to host several hunting workshops to teach the basics of hunting javelina.
These informative workshops are taught by knowledgeable wildlife biologists and fellow javelina hunters. Their goal is to teach new and youth hunters how to get started and increase their odds for success. Those interested are encouraged to attend one of the following free workshops:
Tucson, Sept. 10 from 6:30-8 p.m., International Wildlife Museum, 4800 Gates Pass Road, (520) 628-5376.
Mesa, Sept. 26 from 7-9 p.m., Mesa Regional Game and Fish office, 7200 E. University Drive, (480) 981-9400.
Phoenix, Sept. 26 from 7-9 p.m., Arizona Game and Fish Department headquarters, 5000 W. Carefree Highway, (602) 942-3000.
Each workshop will include a PowerPoint presentation and discussions about the biology and management of the animals, to the nuts and bolts about how to hunt them. Other key areas to be covered include identifying the signs of where they eat and sleep, and how to use binoculars to locate animals.
To hunt javelina, youth must be at least 10 years old and have passed a certified hunter education course. Youth over 14 are encouraged to take a hunter safety course, but it is not mandatory. Regardless of age, a general hunting license is required, as well as a javelina hunt permit-tag.
Currently, there are plenty of juniors-only fall javelina hunt permit-tags available on a first-come, first-serve basis by submitting an application via U.S. Mail. The majority of the hunts are in beautiful southern Arizona. The season dates are either Oct. 10-16 or Nov. 21-27, depending on choice of hunting area. For details on applying for a tag and a list of hunting area choices, visit www.azgfd.gov/draw.
