There’s going to be a huge tally of deer taken in Michigan this year.
Might be for down there, but up here it aint good. At least it has not started out good.
The wolves have done their job.
Went up to one of my old places that I have not hunted since 88. Not much for sign. Used to see several deer in a day up there and good sign all over. I walked the whole four sections and never saw so much as a flag.
Up here if you want to see deer, get near town.
Maybe in lower Michigan, I go to the Western UP, about 70 miles North of Marinette/Menominee on Highway 41. 120 acres near Hwy. 41 and US 2 in the middle of absolutely nowhere.
The last few years have been really bad, saw some fawns, and that was about it. Heard today we have a few large 8+ point bucks wandering around the property, so who knows. Maybe this year will be good.
