Hunting the Lacrosse area

[Eric_Sieve]

I am thinking about going to UWL next year. Are there good public lands around lacrosse and are land owners receptive to requests to hunt their property?? Any advice would be great! Thanks!

There are lots of good reasons to go to UWL but hunting is not one of them. Good fishing, good school, pretty girls but most of all its an affordable place to go to a good college. You won't be lonesome for home once you get here thats for sure.

There is a couple of public hunting areas near LaCrosse, that have a decent population of deer and turkey. But, they are also full of people, especially during the gun season. If you bowhunt, you will have less competition, but you will have to work for the deer. Near Trempeleau there is 6 square miles of public land. It has quite a good population of deer, but it is a marshy area with plenty of skeeters early. There too you will need to walk in quite a ways to get away from the crowds. Private land can be had, but you will knock on a lot of doors before you get permission.
