Youth Deer Hunt October 6th-7th

Time to get the kids blaze orange! The Statewide Youth Deer Hunt is October 6th & 7th.  Kids ages 10-15 are eligible to get out in the woods and find their prize buck. See this article from the Wisconsin DNR with all the details.

MADISON – A statewide youth deer hunt will be held the weekend of Oct. 6-7 in Wisconsin. The hunt is designed to give youth hunters ages 10-15 an opportunity to hunt deer and gain valuable hunting experience at a time when other hunters are not authorized to hunt deer with a firearm.

Since 2009, hunters ages 10 through 15 have been able to participate in the youth gun deer hunt, which is open to both resident and non-resident youth hunters.

The hunt is open in all deer management units, except state park units and areas where permits are not issued by the Department of Natural Resources. The bag limit is one buck with a gun buck deer carcass tag, plus an additional antlerless deer per antlerless deer carcass tag valid for the DMU or a junior antlerless deer tag, which is valid statewide. Archery deer hunters are required to wear blaze orange clothing whenever any gun deer hunt is open, including during the youth deer hunt.

And along with the opening of Whitetail Deer Bow season comes the beginning of the 2012 Deer Hunter Whitetail Survey.  Once again the Wisconsin DNR is asking hunters to report on the wildlife they see while they are hunting.  These observations help the DNR keep tabs on the deer population in Wisconsin.
