Ohio’s fall wild turkey harvest lags behind at midpoint
At about the midpoint in Ohio’s revamped fall wild turkey hunting season, the statistics are strongly suggesting a decline in the number of birds shot.
However, the drop cannot be blamed on fewer wild turkeys out there. Just the opposite, in fact. Credit – or blame – the declining number of hunters seeking turkeys when the autumn leaves begin to turn color and cooler temperatures arrive.
