For you Wisconsin guys...I'm looking at hunting Northern Zone. It seems like that area used to be buck only. Is that still the case, not seeing it in the regs?
Correct, it's also dependent on the CDAC commission by county to set numbers, and just quick looking at Douglas County, they had their meeting a week ago, not sure when they decide on those things. I grouse hunt a lot in most of that area so I get to see a lot of great deer sign/opportunities that the average weekend bowhunter would miss deep in public, but I also am grateful that my parents live on a spread in the SW part of the state. A guy in Douglas or Bayfield counties could probably sit a great rub line for a week in late October and see nothing, see a nice buck, or see me come through with a shotgun and my setter.I believe DunnCoHunter is right. The buck tags are state wide and antlerless tags depend on the county and are also private or public depending on your choice.

Any of the counties that border the UP. My thought was if I tag out early again, chase snow in rifle season as close as I can get to the UP. I'd bet you probably get more snow on the Superior shore like we do here?I could be wrong, but pretty sure when you buy your license you only get the statewide buck tag for the northern zone. But doe tags are sold by county. So you might be able to pick up a doe tag separately. What county are you looking at hunting?

Sounds alot like the UP. I was kinda leaning more towards rifle/mz season if I tag out early.Correct, it's also dependent on the CDAC commission by county to set numbers, and just quick looking at Douglas County, they had their meeting a week ago, not sure when they decide on those things.

I've promised myself that some day I will rifle hunt opening weekend in the northern zone because I know a lot of the country so well, but it won't be for as long as I get to hunt with my dad on the home farm.
All the big ones at least lolDeer? We ain't go no Deer here.
UP has all the deer.
