Rifle zones.

[tangle tooth]

      I seem to recall a couple or three years ago,there was a rumor of deer rifle zones in most of Minnesota. There were  some restrictions and other rules of course but, what ever happened to this potential season?

They are still debating it.  Comes up every year now.

They’ll have to change it soon…all the current rifle hunters will need to hunt down south since the wolves took over the northern portion. 🤣

I personally don't see how that's going to come to be,  it's a safety thing in my mind!

It originally did not start as a safety thing.  They started the shotgun thing so they could keep the deer harvest down.  Now they are bringing safety up as some want to keep it shotgun only.  Yet you can hunt predators and target shoot all you want with rifles.
