  • The Homecoming Buck
    26

    OL's Hunting Editor Andrew McKean returns to his Missouri family farm for a farewell to his childhood home and his late father. He couldn't know that he'd come away with the best buck of his life, and a tale for the ages.

    Great deer and good account of how it happened. Fathers passing on hunting wisdom is how it should be.

  • Wisconsin Bear Count
    4

     

    Based on new scientific data indicating that nearly three times the number of black bears live in the state than previously estimated, the Wisconsin Natural Resources Board voted unanimously last week to increase the bear kill quota by 55 percent

    As a result, for the 2009 Wisconsin bear-hunting season, the quota will be raised to 4,585 and the number of hunting permits raised to 7,310, a 57 percent increase.

    I am skeptical about this increase in permits for the WI bear based on a graduate students research and the bear "hunters" association. They both have more to gain than the DNR.
