Record turkey harvest climbs in mixed Wisconsin zones
Big gobbler hunter Allen Hart of Richland Center bagged a 24 percent pound tom at 445 a.m. April 24 as southwestern Wisconsin’s expanded three five-day turkey seasons yielded 793 birds. DNR officials cited more permits and new zones boosting harvest by nearly 60 percent with a 23 percent hunter success rate. Zone totals ranged from 15 birds in Zone 5 to 229 in Zone 2, while Zone 3 and Zone 4 also posted gains and plans for 1987 include an extra zone and an additional five-day period.
