Last day of Michigan spring turkey season is May 31

Haven't bought your spring turkey license yet? Hunt 234 spring turkey licenses, which can be used through May 31, are still available anywhere DNR licenses are sold or online at E-License. There are also a few leftover licenses available in limited-quota hunt areas.

If you have hunted already this spring, now is a great time to mentor a new turkey hunter! The spring wild turkey season offers the perfect setting for experienced turkey hunters to share their knowledge and skills with other hunters or introduce the sport to a first-time hunter. Take someone hunting, show them how much fun turkey hunting can be, and help them learn how to call these unique birds. Hunt 234 is available, without application, throughout the Hunt 234 turkey season.

We're interested in your turkey hunting experience; please take a minute to tell us about your season by completing the spring harvest survey.
