Michigan's firearm deer season is right around the corner. The DNR advises hunters should wear orange and follow antler point restrictions and rules on baiting. Ole Gun Shack manager Aaron Pieri has some advice for hunters too.
“They get their guns out and get them cleaned and test fired before they head out into the woods.”
And, with gun season opening up this Tuesday, Pieri says business is good.
“Definitely. This time of year for us we always get busy. Right now I'm about eight guns deep mounting scopes and bore sighting and stuff of that nature.”
Over half a million hunters are expected to participate in the firearm deer season this year.
Hunting pumps more than $2.3 billion into Michigan’s economy each year, according to the U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service.
