A good place to hunt? https://dnr.wisconsin.gov/topic/Hunt

Yes Jimmy WI is a good to great place to hunt, and like most places better if you're a resident! I don't go there as I am much more familiar with MN. There are many parallels though. Grouse, deer, waterfowl turkeys etc. Very good trout fishing and lots of it. I have done some of that. I don't know how much public access they have, I would think a lot. I encourage everyone to go to WI, please!

With your self proclaimed aversion to cold temps, you should try Bong Air Base rec area. They probably still release pheasants in the morning, and you can lock arms with fellow chicagoans for the afternoon shoot, all within a chip shot of downtown Milwaukee. On the other hand, the farther north and west you go, probably the better the hunting, but fair warning, you'll need a 4wd vehicle that burns petroleum based fuel in fairly large amounts. Get in shape.

The wolf population is exploding That's bad for deer and grouse dogs The state approved a limited season to keep them in check but people like jimmy protested and it was stopped There is a limited amount of moose and they won't be long The state also restocked some elk which have been doing alright but soon they will turn out to be just dinner for the wolves.

They restocked turkeys a few years ago and they have exploded Places i used to hunt grouse or pheasants have been taken over by turkeys
