As autumn makes it’s return to south central Iowa, so does hunting season. Youth deer hunting season closes on Sunday.

Iowa DNR Conservation Officer Ken Kenyon says those with youth hunting licenses will have an opportunity to continue to hunt when more seasons start later this autumn and winter if they haven’t filled their tag. This two week period also coincides with disabled hunter season. He says archery season started on the 1st of the month and muzzleloader season begins on October 11th.
