I left Wisconsin 12/04 but I have stayed in touch with my deer hunting friends. And the story is always the same. Every year fewer and fewer deer. Where I used hunt near Mt. Horeb, the land where I hunted would produce 10-12 bucks each year. The past two years, NO deer have even been seen.
I remember the 1st year of the DNR's eradication, a gas station in Barneveld held a contest of who could shoot the most deer. I don't remember the total, but 2 guys at one time were tied a 70-some each. Didn't even have to gut 'em, just deliver them and the DNR would take care of it. Sickening.
I'm in the Black Hills and have enjoyed 5 very good deer seasons and would never even think of moving back to Wisconsin.
By the way, DON'T send any of your DNR guys this way!
