Back when I was growing up in the 60's there were more Counties that had a Fall Season. Rifles were legal then as well but nobody ever did it where we hunted(Dallas County). For many years there have only been 6 Counties to have a Fall Season. My ? how does the state determine which Counties have a Fall Season. My assumption would be each Counties Politics....not Turkey Density. What Ye Say Aldeer?

I don't think there should be a fall season. leave the ones that survived the spring for seed.

It was deeply entrenched in local tradition.

Two of the counties I hunt, Coosa and Wilcox, both had fall seasons back in the day but the state did away with them at the request of the county commissions. There weren't a lot of traditional fall hunters, but there were a whole lot of turkeys being killed by deer hunters. By the time of the change it wasn't legal to hunt them with rifles or buckshot, but a whole lot of people considered that a technicality. Turkey season was in, they saw a turkey, so they shot it. Whether a gobbler or hen didn't matter to many of them.

It's a lot like the current situation with baiting - folks have spent money on a baiting permit and they aren't gonna stop baiting because turkey season is in. It's similar thinking to shooting a turkey in the fall with a rifle - a technicality.

Hey Troy, if you are reading this, did you ever make a lot of cases for turkeys being killed with rifles and buckshot?
