Post by: turkeydancer on December 11, 2009, 12:36:18 PM: There are 3 seasons in this state (and when a turkey season is open it's legal to use either shotgun and/or bow only as mentioned earlier):

Spring - April 15th thru May 31st (there is also an earlier weekend youth only prior to the general start)

Early Fall - Usually a two week period that spans the end of Sept. into Oct. and only in parts of eastern Washington

Late Fall - Units 105 thru 124 only (NE corner of the state) - 1 either sex bird - Nov 20 thru Dec 15.

Best to read the Spring Turkey and the Fall Hunting regs for dates and areas open, what weapons are legal, etc.
