On The Cover: Hunting, more than most other sports, is passed on from generation to generation throu gh
the experiences of the youn g hunter provided by an older mentor. Surveys indicate tp at 75 % of hunters in
Georgia began the sport before age 15 . More tha n 90% of Georgia hunters were introduced to hunting by the
age of 20. During the past ten years, the number of teen aged hunters has been cut in half. This disturbing
trend is also fo und in hunt.ers from 20 to 25 years old.
The Georgia Department of Natural Resources provides many opportunities for young hunters through
Adult/Child hunts on WMAs across th e state. Adult/Chi ld deer hunts are sched uled for 17 WMAs, and young
hunters can try to bag a gobbler on Adu lt/Chi ld hunts provided at 4 WMAs. Quail, dove, and waterfowl
Ad ult/C hild hunts are a lso ava il able. T hese special hunts are li sted on page 45.
