Youth season question?

[HornHoarder]

Can the youth hunters take 2 birds during youth season? Of course two tags are needed. My son got one yesterday, and wants to hunt today. Couldn't find anything in the regs.

Same rules as us, they could  shoot two atonce if they wanted

Thanks, that's what I was thinking. I better get out the raingear. Going hunting.

I imagine the poor guy in his blind with his youth hunter with two longbeards coming in hard to his decoys and thinking can we bag on or two?  do I have cell reception so I can post on hunt wa to find out before my youth hunter has to pull the trigger

I wondered the same. The kids can only shoot one back in Missouri, so that is what we are used to. Several people told us WA could only shoot one, but I couldn't find that any where in the regs, or under the WAC code... so I assume they can shoot two.

Here's what I found in the regs:

A total of three (3) turkeys in the spring season with following
restrictions: Only two (2) turkeys may be taken in eastern Washington
and only one (1) of those may be taken in Chelan, Kittitas, and
Yakima counties (combined); only one (1) turkey may be taken in
western Washington per year outside of Klickitat County. Two (2)
turkeys may be taken in Klickitat County.
