Upland game youth and beginner hunts

Each fall, the DWR organizes upland game hunts for youth and beginning hunters who either graduate from Hunter Education or participate in Utah's Trial Hunting Program. Upcoming hunt details and registration links are given below.

Only youth 17 years old or younger may register for youth hunts (see page 14 of the Utah Upland Game and Turkey Guidebook for more information). Youth and beginning hunters of all ages may register for beginner hunts.

Besides those listed in the guidebook, there may be additional youth and beginner hunts offered in areas across the state. Once they are scheduled, those opportunities will be listed below.

Youth hunters are also permitted to hunt all regular seasons open to adults.
