I'm seeing that no matter what time of year you have a rifle deer hunt big bucks/lots of deer are gonna get shot. Making the "we need to move the rifle hunt out of the rut to save the bucks" a moot point. These kids are smoking some nice deer outside of the rut.

If they move firearms season out of the rut, it'll just be smack dab in the middle of post rut. I'd just plant a giant plot of turnips and swedes and snipe away as every hungry buck in the section pours into my deer paradise. I suppose for guys without the ability to plant food plots or hunt a food source, it'd be tougher.

Agree we should move it out of rut !! Won't help. Every kind of deer will be shot whether in the rut or not. |

Bottom line I hope the kids have success! I’m not a fan of MN season structure, but that old news., I doubt it will ever change, so I hunt other states. This youth buck was shot by Benson.  |

Nice buck.
I’d suggest canceling rifle season and go slug only. Start the Monday after thanksgiving.

I’m not sure on the score? Guess high 150s? I was trying to make a joke. I couldn't really care less what it scores. It's a dandy! |

I clearly knew it was a joke.
Same as youth season.
Its recruiting no new hunters. Just another season to kill more. A joke.

I have not seen as much hunting by youth as I expected during this season.
I wonder if some have shifted west into Stu’s zone where there is an early antlerless hunt for adults at the same time.
