Deer
During the 2007 firearms season, hunters took 258,976 deer, and this fall's harvest should be just as good. To help you plan for the upcoming season, this section includes information on every aspect of deer hunting in Missouri, including season portions, regulations, permits and managed hunts. You'll also find opportunities to share your love of deer hunting as well as your harvest.
Turkey
Fall turkey hunting can be more dangerous than spring turkey hunting, because the fall season permits hunters to harvest both males and females. Hunters carrying shot turkeys can look like quarry to other hunters, increasing the chances of shooting accidents. Use this section to help make your fall turkey hunt safe, legal and successful.
