You can also purchase your license and tags at a DNR Customer Service Center or a DNR retail location. Reporting the harvest within 72 hours is also required. Current regulations are available on the DNR Hunt Fish app. The Season runs Sunday through November 30. Hunter orange is required in the woods. Wisconsin’s gun deer season starts a week from tomorrow on November 21st.
