-New Wisconsin deer-hunting regulations for 2012 call for fewer herd-control units, allowing hunters in more parts of the state to harvest a buck during both the archery and gun seasons.
A brief synopsis of the new regulations is in 2012, there will be 56 regular-season units where hunters can harvest a buck during both the archery and gun season. Hunters also will be able to buy a limited number of additional antlerless deer tags at $12 each in 50 of the 56 units where permits are available. Six units will be designated as buck-only for the 2012 season, down from eight in 2011.
The number of herd-control units has decreased from 64 in 2011 to 44 in 2012. These units will have antlerless harvest permits available for $2 each.
The deer season in the Chronic Wasting Disease, or CWD, management zone will be the same as in 2011. There will be an October antlerless-only gun hunt Oct. 11 to Oct. 14.
