The Minnesota fall turkey hunting season offers hunters a challenge and another way to experience the outdoors. The season is open from Saturday, Sept. 28, through Sunday, Oct. 27.

Hunters can take one turkey of either sex during the fall season. They may use a crossbow, bow, or shotgun afield. Fall turkey licenses are available for purchase online (mndnr.gov/buyalicense), by telephone (888-665-4236), or in person anywhere Minnesota DNR licenses are sold.

More information about fall turkey hunting is available on the Minnesota DNR website (mndnr.gov/hunting/turkey) and in a recorded Minnesota DNR outdoor skills webinar (youtube.com/watch?v=EVS-PoNTEew).
