Georgia hunters can mark their calendars! The Georgia Department of Natural Resources (DNR) has announced the dates for the 2025 turkey season. Private land will be open to turkey hunting from March 29th to May 15th, while public land season runs from April 5th to May 15th. Young and mobility-impaired hunters will have an early opportunity to bag a gobbler during a special season on March 22nd and 23rd. The season limit remains at two gobblers, with a daily bag limit of one. Hunters using public land should be aware that they are limited to harvesting only one gobbler per season per area. The youth and mobility impaired season allows hunters aged 16 and under and individuals with mobility impairments to participate in the hunt. The DNR is reminding all hunters to familiarize themselves with the regulations and bag limits before heading into the woods. Failure to comply with these rules can result in charges and fines. “Responsible hunting starts with knowing the rules,” a DNR spokesperson stated. “We encourage all hunters to review the regulations before the season begins.” For those looking for prime turkey hunting locations, the Ridge & Valley Region is known for its excellent turkey harvests. Remember, all resident hunters aged 16 or older are required to possess a Resident Hunting, Combo, or Sportsman’s License, unless hunting on their own land or land owned by immediate family. Detailed information regarding the 2024-2025 Georgia Hunting Season Dates and Bag Limits can be found online at the Georgia DNR website or at any authorized license vendor.
