RibsMoon,
I hunted the Northwest, Washburn & Burnett counties, county and paper mill land. Next weekend, I am hunting with the in-laws in the kill-off area around Reedsburg. Don't fall for the CWD BS. Go hunting and a good time.

Moon! I agree with Ribs, from the gun license stats, it sounds like alot of other wisconsinites also agreed.

<XTARHEEL>There is some good hunting up there. I shot a nice 9-pointer in Washburn county in '01. Near Harmon Lake. Last year it was in the 60's during deer season. What a difference a year makes weatherwise!
