More than 600,000 Wisconsin deer hunters are gearing up for the nine day gun season, which begins on Saturday.
The DNR is alerting hunters to some changes, including the new state laws that allow blaze pink clothing, and the end of a requirement that hunters wear back tags. Also, carcass tags will be made of paper instead of plastic, and the DNR reminds hunters to keep them dry and to note the time and date their deer was killed.
Hunters were hoping to get snow this weekend, so they could see the animal tracks — but there’s only a chance of snow showers this weekend.
