Some people in Oconomowoc will be able to hunt deer from the backyards under the city’s newest plan.
The common council there voted last week to allow people to bow hunt deer inside the city as a way to thin the deer population. Homeowners will need to be at least 50 yards away from their home and their neighbor’s homes to shoot at a deer. Oconomowoc is also opening-up two pieces of city owned land for hunting. Bow hunting season in Wisconsin is currently open.
