LANSING, MI (WHTC) – It will be a good season for deer hunters in Michigan this year.
The Michigan Department of Natural Resources is out with its forecast for the season, and says a mild winter in the Upper Peninsula last year may help the deer population numbers after three severe winters.
Deer numbers are expected to be up throughout the Lower Peninsula.
Bow season starts Saturday, October 1, with firearm season starting November 15th. An annual base license is required for every resident or nonresident who hunts in Michigan.
