Make sure you have everything you need before heading out to the woods this weekend to start the gun season for deer hunting. So far this year, hunters have harvested 693 deer in Door County and 539 in Kewaunee County. That includes 111 deer in Door County and 107 deer in Kewaunee County that were harvested during the youth hunt held October 8th and 9th. The number of participants was on par with past years, according to Department of Natural Resources Conservation Warden Chris Kratcha. He predicts the number of hunters out in the woods during the nine-day gun season will be on par with years past.
The gun season runs from November 19th to 27th. Kratcha reminds hunters to practice proper safety techniques when out in the woods and have the landowner's permission if they are hunting on private land.
