Landowners and Hunters with Disabilities Reminded to Consider Enrollment in the Gun Deer Hunt for Hunters with Disabilities Prog
Sunday, April 30th, 2017 -- 7:11 AM
Both landowners and hunters with disabilities are reminded to consider enrollment in the Gun Deer Hunt for Hunters with Disabilities Program, which helps provide opportunities for everyone to enjoy hunting in Wisconsin.The program gives disabled hunters an opportunity to hunt deer while mild temperatures persist and mobility is relatively unhampered. Last year, more than 70 landowners in 48 counties enrolled roughly 79,000 acres of hunting land to provide opportunities for over 400 participants to take part in the gun deer hunt for hunters with disabilities.
Interested landowners are encouraged to enroll their property for the 2017 hunt by June 1. Potential sponsors need at least 60 acres of land and must be willing, if contacted, to allow access to at least three hunters with disabilities. The 2017 disabled deer hunt will take place October 7-15. (Wisconsin Ag Connection)
