In the Wild with Greg Wagner

 Easy answer. Whether you’re a resident or a nonresident, you can start buying your deer hunting permits for the various fall/winter seasons on Monday, June 14th at 1 p.m. Central Time.

There are a number of changes to deer hunting in Nebraska this year, make certain you have read through the 2010 Big Game Guide and know those. Here’s the link to it: http://outdoornebraska.ne.gov/hunting/guides/biggame/pdfs/biggame.pdf 

Among the changes this year is the $5.00 youth deer hunting permit for young residents and nonresidents who are 10 through 15 years of age. 

My 12-year old son Noah and I are thrilled about this! Read more here: http://outdoornebraska.ne.gov/hunting/5bucks.asp 

See you out there, taking a young hunter to the field this fall!
