I head to my hometown area in the U.P. on the 14th as usual & fork over the $130 or so for a non-res license. I only have 2.5 days to hunt unless I can move some work on the 18th. I don't have a lot of faith for this season. Many areas I hunted in the Northern U.P. 25 yrs ago seem to have a lot of hair filled wolf poop now & less deer. Of course some will say the wolves actually improved their deer hunting. It is mostly a traditional family get together. We still have a few promising spots. I don't feel like holding my fire this year on any smaller buck I see, like the last year or 2. I also plan to go up early enough on the 14th to go out grouse hunting some with my lab. I know the grouse numbers are down but I go for many reasons.
