LBL, where did you get this info? I have been hearing for a couple years that the quota hunt birds were not gonna be a bonus bird, however I have not heard that the change has taken place.
If you compare this years 2018 Fact sheet to last year's 2017 Fact Sheet, you will notice this subtle difference for TN:

2018 - Bonus Turkey: Youth Quota Hunt Only

2017 - Bonus Turkey: Turkey harvested on a quota hunt

Based on this alone, I infer that the only "bonus" turkey for TN portion this year is on the Youth Quota Hunt, and all other birds on TN portion will count as a statewide bird.
This is correct.
 
Yeah I read that they are not bonus birds on the website. But on the quota hunt sheet that you feel out for the rest of the state it still said one was a bonus Bird

You are correct in that the 2018 TWRA Quota hunt guidance "for LBL" is misleading. You also have to remember that TWRA does not set the rules for LBL who is controlled by USDA/US Forest Service.
 
Good Luck to y'all. I didn't bother applying this year. I might ride up and hunt the open hunt a couple days.
