Possible Deer Hunting Changes

[Reggoh]

The tags they give out suck too...
On the deer I shot last year I tagged it before moving it from the kill site with a zip tie.
After I drug it to my ATV (about 400 yds away) I looked down and all I had was a zip tie. I had to back track the drag trail on my GPS and found the tag had ripped off about 50 yds back.

I have always reported my kills since they started this but it is easy to forget about it.

I've hunted in Wisconsin a few times over the years and I've been lucky enough to harvest a few deer. Up there you still have to tag your deer with the paper license tag but then you have to bring the kill to a license vendor within 24 hours for verification and they put the metal tags on it. So it doesn't cost the DNR anything... the vendors have to accept that responsibility as part of being a license vendor. Both of the bucks that I killed there still have the metal tag wrapped around the antlers.
