Minnesota offers a perfect opportunity for experienced deer hunters to share their knowledge and traditions with youth ages 10-17 during the statewide youth deer season.
The four-day season will take place statewide Thursday, Oct. 16, through Sunday, Oct. 19, and coincides with statewide teacher workshops, when many Minnesota schools are closed for fall break.
Temperatures in the middle of October are warmer than those during the regular November firearm deer season; snow hasn’t typically fallen yet, and deer are moving more during the daylight hours. These factors create an ideal environment for youth interested in deer hunting.
Important information about license and safety requirements for youth hunters and their accompanying adults is available on the Minnesota DNR youth deer season webpage (mndnr.gov/hunting/deer/youth.
