11-7-13 rifle deer hunting in the town of eldorado

Rifle hunting will be allowed in the town of Eldorado during the upcoming deer hunt.  The Eldorado town board  met Wednesday night and decided against an ordinance that would have restricted rifle use during the deer hunt.  The DNR announced earlier this fall that rifles will be allowed statewide for the hunt, except where municipalities enact  local restrictions.  Towns and villages in 18 counties across  eastern and western Wisconsin including Fond du Lac county are deciding if there are public safety reasons to prohibit rifle hunting for deer.  The DNR announced the end of shotgun-only counties for deer hunting in Wisconsin as of November 1st.  State DNR warden Todd Schaller says the concern is having dozens of differing local regulations.
