Michigan Wild Turkey Hunters Association
The October 9, 2014 issue of Michigan Outdoor News reported on a study conducted by Michigan State University on the disappearing Snowshoe Hare population throughout northern Michigan. The Study costing $118,709 was commissioned by our Michigan DNR using Pittman-Robertson funds. They looked at 134 sites statewide and found that 49 percent of the historic lower peninsula sites and 27 percent of the upper Peninsula sites do not have hares anymore.
Another fall…another hunting season…and again a moment of reflection as I sit in my stand waiting on a big buck to come my way. A chilly heavy fog this morning and the wet heavy leaves come down on me and blanket the ground below me. Sometimes they flutter and tumble straight down and sometimes one flies through the trees like a jet fighter. I find myself drawn to their final resting place.
The Pere Marquette Chapter will be sponsoring the Wild Turkey Hunter Rendezvous for the 34th year. The event takes place in Baldwin on Saturday March 28th, 2015.
