What are you hunting/fishing?

Used up my buck tag on this . Was limping around with an arrow wound from at least a week ago. Not as big as I would like but needed to be done. I will still be some nice meat

RON PARRISH Good that you put it down, might not have made it through the winter.

[HerbcoFood]

RON PARRISH bocephus For sure would have been coyote dinner later in the winter.

RON PARRISH good job putting him down. Are you hunting a 3 deer County, or are you done for the year?

[processhead]

Nice deer. You did the right thing.

[RON PARRISH]

GWG8541 We are in a three deer county so have one tag left there.

[GWG8541]

RON PARRISH good deal, 3 is about my limit with my current freezer space. If my sons get one, guess who’s freezer space they take up, which I don’t mind as long as they understand it could be consumed at anytime by the owner of the freezer.

[PapaSop]

Between me and the three sons, we have four in the freezer and 14 tags left unfilled. Gun and bow. Cmon Wi., really! Oh, btw, the gun kill was down this year statewide. Hmm.

[RON PARRISH]

GWG8541 I have just the opposite problem. My son in laws raid my deer stash!

RON PARRISH congrats on the buck and being an ethical hunter. Sometimes it just has to be done.

[Ridley Acres]

kudo’s on the ethical harvest, some things just must be done.

[cdavis]

PapaSop me and my son took 4 bucks total. We have 10 doe tags We will not be using. Plus the week of Christmas we could take 4 more does that don’t count against our bag limit. I think it’s ridiculous.

I believe muzzle loader is on now with a four day antlerless to follow. We’re done.

[Ridley Acres]

cdavis PapaSop The number I see laying along the road should indicate WI could let us harvest more. Unless the law makers like higher insurance rates and spending time and resources cleaning up the roadkill.

[bocephus]

Ridley Acres Drove through Wisc. a few years ago and couldn’t believe the number of deer laying along the interstate.

[Ridley Acres]

bocephus And it really doesn’t even matter the time of year.

RON PARRISH good on you to take one out under those circumstances. I did that last year. He had been shot in the lower leg either earlier in the day or the day before.

[craigrice]

I Youse to drive my semi threw west Virginia and see and watch the deer eating the grass on the side of the road because of the road salt in the soil it was the easy access to salt for them

[calldoctoday]

RON PARRISH congratulations on a nice deer. You have to do what you have to do sometimes & you did it right! You will be rewarded.

Here is why the number of deer are down in north Wi. My son took this pic on sun of opening weekend . I cant even tell you how many hours I have sat between bow, gun and now muzzle loader to see only 5 deer . I’m sitting in the stand right now with the smoke pole hoping the fresh snow and below zero temps get them moving.
