Yes, Saturday (Oct. 25) is youth hunting day. This is from the state's regulation book: "Junior hunters (10 years of age or older and under 16) who hold a valid junior hunting license are allowed to take one deer of either sex, with either a firearm or bow and arrow on the youth deer hunting day. If they shoot a deer on the youth deer hunting day, they are prohibited from taking any additional deer, unless they have been awarded a bonus antlerless-deer permit or participate in the expanded archery season (designated areas only) with appropriate expanded archery permits. The parent, guardian, or qualified adult shall not possess a firearm while accompanying a participating youth hunter. All laws pertaining to hunting during the open firearms season on deer apply on the youth deer day."
