About Joe 

I have been hunting and fishing all of my life. I've been fortunate to do this in a number of different states. When it comes to deer hunting, the one state that stands out is Wisconsin. 

This state's reputation for deer hunting is legendary. Deer hunting is a big deal in this state and the hunting heritage here is unmatched. You have generations that have hunted the same property for years. Going to deer camp is an annual event cherished by most. Local residents recognize the importance of deer hunting in this state and treat deer hunters very well.  

Here are some of the reasons Wisconsin is such a popular deer hunting destination:  

•  Wisconsin's deer herd averages about 1,343,000 deer.  

•  "Wisconsin has 23 counties among the top 50 in North American typicals entered since 2004."  --- Game and Fishing Magazine  

•  "Wisconsin is home to eight of the top 10 whitetail counties in the US." --- North American Whitetail .com  

Quality Deer Management is practiced widely thought out the state. Additionally, many landowners leasing property to hunters are willing to allow food plots (with landowner approval).   

There is no shortage of seed dealers offering food plot seed and advice. Leasing the right property and implementing a good deer management plan can bring years of hunting success. And in a state like Wisconsin the chances of getting a "Booner" can be quite good.  

All methods of taking deer are legal in Wisconsin. Hunting with centerfire rifle cartridges is now legal in addition to slugged shotguns during the rifle portion of the season.  

Wisconsin offers other game in addition to deer. The state hosts one of the highest densities of black bears in the U.S. Bear season is popular, and tags are issued by a lottery system.  

All the other game species are here in very good numbers. The turkey flock is good and Wisconsin offers numerous options on when you can hunt and where.  

For the first time, Wisconsin will offer an Elk hunt for 2018. They reintroduced elk years ago and now this successful endeavor will allow the state to offer a limited number of elk tags. This is currently only open to Wisconsin residents.  

I am excited to be representing Hunting Lease network in Wisconsin. I am a member of QDMA, Boone and Crockett and Ducks Unlimited. I look forward to helping hunters maximize their opportunities to take game legally no matter what the species.  

Please let us know what you are looking for and we will do our best to accommodate you.
