Youth deer hunt is this weekend


The annual Kentucky youth deer hunt is this weekend. Hunters 15-under who are accompanied by an adult may harvest either sex deer on Saturday and Sunday.

Hunters aged 12 to 15 must have the required license and permit to hunt big game in Kentucky.

Hunters who are 11 or under do not even need a tag or permit to hunt deer, but their harvested animals must be checked in as required by state regulations.

To check a deer, call 1-800-CHK-GAME.

Next weekend, Oct. 19-20, is the annual two-day early muzzleloader hunt for whitetail deer.
