Youth only 2-day early hunt, has been moved to last two days of archery season.

Based on what I saw last year, it may have been done, because of number of "adult" hunters, poaching during it.

I have to wonder, if it's the best idea, to mix excitable youth hunters and archery hunters (without orange). I think archery hunters may want to wear orange last two days.

IF MTFWP wants to cut down on numbers of archery hunters, maybe choose your weapon, might be better course.

The youth hunt is to coincide with the Teachers convention to give the KIDS two days off to hunt.
Probably nothing to do with "Moving" just how it falls this year???

Our local 'youth deer hunt'  gets a lot of critism.  people think it is time for dad to drag out really young kids so dad can then shoot any early season doe.

Maybe it's because holidays are late this year. Teacher's conference is third thur and fri of Oct. Antelope is Columbus Day weekend, deer is five weeks before Thanksgiving, which falls two weeks after Columbus Day.

Maybe the teachers, not fwp, should be accountable. The youth waterfowl hunt, being on weekend before season, gives kids better shot.
