Nice! I just get to look at bucks this year. Both my wife and I were turned down for buck tags but on the bright side, we did draw second choice doe tags so backstraps will still be on the menu!

In MN you can buy license over the counter and in some areas you have to apply for antlerless, area where this buck is you can buy extra licenses that you have to tag an antlerless with.

Well, across the river from you, I have to scratch my head sometimes at the Wi DNR. Some units, mainly north, bucks only. Unit I hunt for the last three years you get two extra doe tags for each license, ( bow/gun ). You could also purchase extra doe tags. Two years ago we got a third doe only for metro. Although this included the city limits and beyond, I’m pretty sure if I took a shot in town, someone’s taking me to jail.

So, take the eight of us who hunt this land, times all those tags, we could wipe out the population. Obviously we don’t do that. Only four doe taken the last three years.

PapaSop We don’t buy the extra permits either, there are between 4 and 6 of us and if we get 3 or 4 deer we are usually pretty happy. Some years we didn’t even hunt the last couple of days of the season.
