Wisconsin DNR Reminds Hunters of Deadline for Disabilities Deer Hunt

The Wisconsin DNR wants to ensure that people contact the landowner if they are participating in the Gun Deer Hunt for Hunters with Disabilities.

The purpose would be to confirm a location with a hunt landowner sponsor before a September 15^th deadline.

DNR Assistant Brook VanHandel explains that the special hunt offers hunters with disabilities the opportunity to deer hunt at a time and in a place that is more accessible for them.

In Manitowoc County, the person to contact is David Paul.

To sign up for a hunt, hunters or assistants should provide their name, contact information and DNR customer ID number.

To be eligible, hunters must possess a valid Class A, C or D disabled permit or qualifying Class B permit.

Eligible hunters may sign up for one sponsored property per year and must possess a gun deer license.

The Gun Deer Hunt for Hunters with Disabilities takes place October 5^th-13^th.
