Providing us with details from your hunt improves turkey management and ensures that hunting season decisions are based on the best information available.
The 2019 Michigan wild turkey patch is available to hunters, collectors and other turkey enthusiasts. It's free to hunters 16 and younger who had a 2019 wild turkey hunting license, but anyone can purchase the patch for just $5, postage and handling included. The Michigan chapter of the National Wild Turkey Federation coordinates the state’s wild turkey patch program in partnership with the DNR. Each year, the NWTF contributes more than $200,000 to wild turkey and hunter-heritage programs in Michigan, working cooperatively with the DNR. To receive a 2019 patch, send your name and complete address, along with a legible copy of the youth’s 2019 wild turkey hunting license or a payment, to:
