RE: Tough season
We used to be in deer heaven in Northern Wisconsin. The DNR did their best to shoot the herd off. And they have accomplished that. So I can understand your concern at seeing less number of deer. There are years where now I might see one or two legal deer, and nothing to get too excited about.
Yet I was reading out State Rag (paper) and they DNR is telling about record deer herds and how they count is way up. Yet everyone I talk to around here are saying the same thing.. where are the deer.
