—Lancaster Farming, Saturday, April 28,1979 146 Turkey hunting season begins today HARRISBURG - Penn sylvania’s 12th Spring gobbler hunting season got underway throughout the state one half hour before sunrise this morning (Saturday, April 28.) The season ends on May 19. By. late April and early May, gobblers can be removed without adversely affecting the future supply of birds. In most states which have only one turkey season, hunting is usually done in the Spring, rather than in the Fall. Game Commission per sonnel urge hunters to be more conscious of safety requirements during the Spring gobbler season. A bird, to be legal, must have a beard. If the hunter positively identifies the beard, there can be no possibility of anyone being shot in mistake for a turkey during the spring gobbler season. To make the Spring season even more sporting, hunters might cheese to pass up bearded hens, although these birds are legal. A hen has a dull slate grey or TEMIK It pays off in better yields. The proof isln the performance. Potato growers are proving it.

Successful gobbler hunters are reminded that many tom turkeys have a soft breast sponge at this time of year. This is simply a mass of gelatinous material located under the skin on the breast of the turkey. It should be removed before cooking the bird. The presence of the breast sponge has no detrimental effect on the quality of flavor of the bird’s meat. Hunters are required to call in and properly identify a turkey. They should not shoot at birds which are flying or running and haven’t been carefully identified. Hunters are reminded of the following special regulations in effect for the Spring gobbler season: Only bearded turkeys will be legal game. Hunting hours are from one half hour before sunrise until 11 a.m. Hunters should be out of the woods by 12 o’clock noon. A hunter may enter the woods prior to one half hour before sunrise providing no attempt is made to call, hunt for, or kill a turkey prior to the legal shooting hour. Hunting shall be by calling only (manually operated hand and/or mouth calls). The only firearm that may be used is a shotgun with shot no larger than No. 2. A combination over-under rifle-shotgun is permissible providing the hunter does not have single ball am munition for the rifle in his or her possession. Bows and arrows can also be used, if the arrows are of a cutting edge broadbead design. A successful hunter who shoots a bearded turkey is required to detach the Spring turkey tag supplied with the hunting license and attach the tag to the leg of the bird within one hour, and before transporting or removing the turkey in any manner from where it was killed.
