Countdown to Wiscosin Firearms Season.....More anxious than a hormonal teenager on Prom Night

[PerchJerker]

10-4, Good luck MJ! The population up there is usually pretty good. Some nice bucks too You'll have to see if Donbo is in the area when you are

Nope, freezer's already full. No plans to buy a WS tag this year.

My 12 year old hunting pal Mollie got her first WI deer this morning. Double lunged it at about 9:00.

Not a bad year for her got her first in MN and WI.

Congrats too Mollie,how did she do gutting it? Did she remember everything I showed her.

[MJ1657]

Yes she did

Well we had a nice opener. Took 3 deer between 5 guys, could have had more if everybody was interested in party hunting. I saw 4 does (had a friend shoot a doe for me earlier in the day, I was skunked during MN weekends and wanted meat for freezer). Same friend shot a mule of an 8 pointer, the spread is as wide as his shoulders and it was probably a good 200 lbs. Other deer he shot was a button buck. Most guys saw a doe or two opening yesterday, and during a drive we pushed 6 deer out of a swamp past 1 guy.

No action today, it's very quiet out there. I think a lot of guys also came in to watch the Packer game, too...

Im in the same area WIMN. I cant believe the lack of shooting today.

That because the stone cold killer Mollie was sleeping

Hoping to see something tomorrow morning.. We are leaving here around 9 or 10, buddy of mine has a spare doe tag and says I can use it if I want, and I've still got my buck tag. After how slow it was today I'm hoping they're moving around tomorrow.

We didn't see anything today. Looking more promising this coming weekend with the colder temps. I'll be back out Thursday.

[WIMN]

Good luck this weekend! I looked at the week-long forecast and these temps are crazy. I'm stuffing this doe with ice tonight, hopefully no major damage happens between now and Tuesday night when I'll have a chance to butcher it.

Glad to hear you guys had fun!

Unreal warm..... half the time there is snow on the ground right now.....

....hope you got your deer cooling off or cut up

Opening morning I hunted an unpressured swamp adjoining a bunch of high pressured hardwoods. I would feel bad telling you how many deer I saw But of the dumptruck load of critters, I didn't see any bucks worth pulling the trigger on.

Today I went out to the same spot and didn't see a deer until 9:30. Momma said I had better fill the two $20 doe tags I bought, so I did Funny she didn't care when I was a resident and they were two dollars ......... LOL

Good luck to all of you guys for the rest of the season!

We are headed up to hunt by Minong next weekend.......I hope this weather breaks sooner than later.

My father in law got a decent 8 right at sun up yesterday then a doe in the afternoon

[DonBo]

Good friend of mine shot a big 9 pt near Grantsburg today, his biggest ever, with his bow! He's pretty pumped.

They said not much action this weekend. With all the trees down from the big storm a year and a half ago, any deer that doesn't want to be seen will not be seen. Plenty of hiding places, just what the herd in that part of the world needs.

[matchset]

24 does and not a single racked buck all weekend....what??
