The Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources (DNR) is reminding eligible, disabled hunters, hoping to participate in the 2022 gun deer hunt for hunters with disabilities to contact and confirm their hunting location with a hunt sponsor before September 1st.
Sponsors have enrolled nearly 70,000 acres of land across 40 counties for this year’s hunt taking place October 1st through the 9th.
To participate in the 2022 hunt, hunters should contact sponsors directly. Some properties can accommodate more hunters than others, so hunters are advised to contact potential sponsors as early as possible to determine availability.
In a news release, the DNR stated that they are “committed to providing various hunting, fishing and recreational permits and unique opportunities designed to help give people with disabilities the opportunity to partake in Wisconsin’s abundant natural resources.”
