In 1991, eighty-seven percent (10,152) of the licensees actually hunted and averaged about three days of hunting effort. Hunters harvested an estimated 5,014 turkeys, five percent more than in 1990. Hunter success increased from 42 to 44 percent. Hunter satisfaction is used in the evaluation of the turkey management program. For the 1991 fall season, most (58%) hunters reported their hunting as "good." Twenty-two percent rated their fall turkey hunting as "poor", while the remaining hunters said it was neither "good" nor "poor."
