Spring Turkey Season Opens April 14 for Shotgun Hunters

LINCOLN, Neb. – The spring turkey season opens across the state for shotgun hunters on April 14, one week after it opens for youth shotgun hunters, according to the Nebraska Game and Parks Commission.

The season opened for archers in late March. All spring turkey seasons close May 31.

A spring turkey permit or spring youth turkey permit allows a person to hunt with archery equipment during the archery season and a shotgun during the shotgun season. Each hunter may have as many as three permits. The bag limit is one male or bearded female turkey per permit.
