Stakeholders meeting coming up at DNR in a few weeks, thought you guys would like to hear the proposed sika changes. They want to go to 3 in each weapon season, still only one each weapon season can be a stag. Also want to let hunters take the full bag limit on the 3 day October MZ hunt, not just one sika as currently in the regs.

Seems ok with me. I only get a few chances to hunt over there so having the chance to take more than one animal on that muzzle loader hunt would benefit guys like me. But I am also OK with it remaining the way it is if it will benefit the herd.

I could see trying one or the other, just worried that both may hit them too hard on the population numbers. Either way, it's better than the branch antler restrictions they tried last time around!

Well we know know it is 3 a season with only one stag. I plan to do some harvesting and hope my kids can get in on it as well. Hopefully people will only take what they need and not exterminate the herd because they can.. I guess we shall see...

Only had a couple Frank.. young ones still growing.. Thick velvet antlers.. Hoping they sprout into a couple big boys but nothing too spectacular... I did see a couple, what looked to be GOOD ones, heading out of a corn field into the woods adjacent to my lease.. so that was nice to see.... I know they are there. I am really considering taking the week before muzzle loader off and bow hunting during the rut... I am pumped for this year..
