I live in Weyauwega, about 35 minutes east down Highway 10 from Stevens Point. I don't own my own land either, but my dad has an old farm he still owns the land to, so I hunt there. He also owns a small marsh area off the Wolf River we hunt during the rut. It's real dead all bow season, until late october in to the first week of november, that place is crawling with big bucks those couple of weeks. Around the 11th or so of november it shuts off again and we head back to the farm, but it balances out nice. We see lots of doe on the farm and not many bucks, then some nice bucks in the marsh later in the season. Makes stand decisions easy. I just bow hunt, the gun hunting in our area is so terrible that I gave it up a couple years ago. I like it, but the deer turn into Houdini's come gun season.
