BHunt 08:/b Three deer hunters shot, one fatally on Wisconsins ... Found: 1 Week 3 Days 15 Hours 2 Minutes ago The Daily Tribune - Three hunters were shot Sunday, one fatally, marring what began as a safe opening weekend to Wisconsins nine-day deer season.A 48-year-old man from Appleton was fatally shot at about 10:30 a.m. Sunday while hunting near the town of Bovina, according to the Outagamie County Sheriffs Department.
No further details were available and authorities were not releasing the mans name Sunday, said Laurel Steffes, a spokeswoman for the Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources.
In a separate incident Sunday, a 24-year-old man from Caroline was shot in the shoulder when a deer ran between him and a member of his hunting party. Fred Grunewald was expected to survive the incident, which
happened in the Shawano County town of Grant.
On Sunday afternoon, a man received a non-life-threatening gunshot wound to his leg in Washington County. Authorities think the man was shot by someone else in his hunting party.
Hunters in Lincoln, Marathon, Oneida, Portage, Vilas and Wood counties experienced a second-straight accident-free day, according to sheriffs offices and the Department of Natural Resources.
There was not nearly as much shooting or hunting pressure Sunday as there was Saturday, DNR warden supervisor Randy Falstad said.
Weve ran into the things we tell people about weve run into a lot of illegal bait, ATVs on roads, (and) uncased guns in motor vehicles, Falstad said. Weve written a fair amount of citations to people, but 95 percent of the people are really good.
The weather was beautiful for hunters Sunday, and while some reported seeing a lot of deer during bow season, many commented how few deer they saw Sunday, he said.
Mating season, or the rut as hunters call it, has passed, so deer might not be moving around as much, Falstad said.
The 2007 firearms hunt was the second safest in history in terms of shooting accidents, according to the DNR. However, it was deadly -- three hunters were fatally shot and three more were wounded.
Steffes said that Saturday, the opening day of the firearms deer season, was incident-free....
