Legal hunting hours are one-half hour prior to sunrise until noon. Take the time to pattern your shotgun using the same load that will be taken afield. Remember that shot size no larger than No. 4 lead is legal in Pennsylvania. As in past seasons, hunters must wear a minimum of 100 square inches of safety orange material when moving through woods and fields. It is recommended that the hat, scarf, vest or a band of safety orange garment should be placed on a nearby tree or bush as a precautionary measure.
Turkey decoys are legal in Pennsylvania.
Be cautious in setting them up so that you can see another hunter approaching. Hunters bagging gobblers must tag them before the bird is moved, using the tag attached to the hunting license. A postpaid report card, also issued with the license, must be sent to Harrisburg within 10 days of the kill. Be sure to indicate the Turkey Management Area from which the bird was taken. P.O. Box 986, Cherryville, PA 18035-0986.
