After Ohio hunters enjoyed a 32% jump in the number of turkeys reported during the 2023 spring season over its 2022 counterpart, the results of the just-concluded 2024 turkey season shows a bit of throttling back from 2023.
For the 2024 season, hunters across Ohio checked 15,535 birds. That figure nearly matches the 15,673 birds tallied during the 2023 spring season, but is still ahead of the 2022 spring season harvest of 11,872 birds. The total statewide kill represents all turkeys checked from April 20 to May 26 for the 83-county South Zone and the five-county Northeast Zone.
