Statewide Antlerless Hunt Dec. 6-9 | Sports & Recreation

Written by the Wisconsin DNR

Though the muzzleloader deer season ended Dec. 5, hunters still have opportunities remaining this year to harvest a deer.

Hunters statewide can participate in the antlerless hunt that runs Dec. 6 through Dec. 9. Archery hunters can continue pursuing deer during the remaining late archery season that runs through Jan.6, 2013. Finally, a Holiday Hunt takes place in Chronic Wasting Disease units of southern Wisconsin starting Dec. 24 and ending Jan. 6, 2013.

Landowners and hunters in CWD units are reminded that there is no CWD landowner hunt this year. This CWD management zone-specific hunt previously enabled landowners and landowner-designated permit holders to hunt on private land in CWD zones from January to March.
