Michigan Senate Report By Joe Hune, 22nd District

Honoring Our Veterans As President Lyndon B. Johnson said on Veterans Day in 1967, “We pause in solemn tribute to the men and women who have carried the banner of liberty in time of danger… We can never repay the Nation’s debt to them.” We can never say thank you enough to the brave veterans who have served our nation proudly. Through their sacri¿ce, they have secured our freedom. And no matter how hard I try, it is impossible for me to thank our active-duty and military veterans enough. I consider standing up for our veterans to be one of the most important parts of my Mob. It is important that we honor our veterans, not Must on Nov. 11, but year round. Fortunately, here in Michigan there are many ways we can help our veterans. In Livingston County, we have a great Department of Veterans Services that can provide assistance to veterans and their families. They can assist with ¿ling claims for bene¿ts at the federal, state and county level. The department is also involved with the Michigan Veterans Trust Fund and County Veterans Relief Fund, which help veterans and their families get through ¿nancial emergencies. In addition to all of that, the department also administers the County Veterans Burial Fund to help provide an honorable burial for veterans and their spouses. For more information on the Livingston County Department of Veterans Services, visit www.livgov.com/veterans. The Michigan Veterans Affairs Agency (MVAA provides valuable services for our veterans. From Mob resources to medical bene¿ts and transition assistance, the MVAA is there for those who were there for us. The MVAA can be reached at 1-800-MICH-VET or at their website www. MichiganVeterans.com. And ¿nally, my of¿ce is always available to help. It is one of the greatest privileges of holding public of¿ce to support our veterans. For Michigan veterans interested in obtaining a Veterans Bene¿ts and Services Guide, please call my of¿ce or visit www.SenatorJoeHune.com and click Publications located under the Customer Service tab. If you have any further Tuestions, please email my of¿ce at SenJHune@ senate.michigan.gov or call toll-free at 855-JOE-HUNE and my staff will be happy to assist you.

Fowlerville High School once again holding :inter Gear Drive Nov. - It’s that time of year again. Whether you are ready or not, Old Man Winter is coming for a long visit! As you transition your closet from t-shirts and shorts to sweaters and Means, keep an eye out for any winter Mackets, scarves, gloves, and hats you no longer need that are still in great condition. Or as you are shopping for your new winter gear, generously purchase a new item for a student or community member in need. Teachers at Fowlerville High School are working together to organize a district-wide Winter Gear Drive for the community! The weeks of November 9– 20, all school buildings will be collecting winter coats, hats, gloves, and scarves in bins in front of their of¿ces. Pass your new or gently used and cleaned gear to students in your family and instruct them to drop them into a box in front of the of¿ce at their school. No boots please! Redistribution of all donated winter gear will happen at the Holiday Shopping Event at Fowlerville High School on Thursday, December 10 from 4pm to 7pm. Come get your free winter gear, enter into the free prize rafÀes, pick up health info, shop mom to mom booths, and buy discounted goods from local vendors. Celebrate the season with us!

If you have any questions, are interested in setting up a mom-to-mom booth, or would like to sell items from your small business, please contact Nicole Olszowy, Jennifer Connor or Becky Brent at brentr@fowlervilleschools.org.

Edible & Ecological Landscapes Program Sierra Club Crossroads Group invites you to a free program at the Brighton District Library on Wednesday, November 18th from 7pm-9pm presented by Roots to Fruits, an ecological and edible landscape design ¿rm.

Livingston County Holiday Gift & Food Programs announced

If you would like to plan an organizational drive at your church, club or workplace, please contact dgehringer@ lcunitedway.org for areas of greatest need.

As the holiday season approaches, local organizations offer a reference guide for providing assistance to Livingston County families. “Many of our working families, while employed, still struggle to make ends meet for various reasons,” said Nancy Rosso, Livingston County United Way Executive Director. “Unexpected expenses like medical or car repair bills can really pressure the household budget. “Throughout the year the United Way works with the different nonpro¿t agencies to create solutions for longterm stability for local families,” Rosso continued. “At the holidays, though, we know many people want to give back and help their neighbors in speci¿c and generous ways.” To that end, the Livingston County Holiday Gift & Food Programs information sheet provides dates and contact information for receiving assistance as well as for volunteers and donations. The information sheet is published online at http://www.lcunitedway.org under “Get Involved.”

Antrim Baptist Church to host evangelist & singer Nov. 15-17

(vangelist Bruce Frye will be ministering in music and the Word of God at Antrim Baptist Church on Sunday, Nov. 15 through Tuesday, Nov. 17. Sunday services are; 10:00am, 11:00am and 6:00pm. Monday and Tuesday services are at 7:00pm. Brother Frye is a humble servant of God and a talented musician and singer. Before the Lord transformed Bruce’s life, his ambition in life was to “make it big� in the music scene in Nashville. After years of performing on the club circuit and opening shows for Sawyer Brown, the Oak Ridge Boys, Charlie Daniels and others, he was unable to escape the nagging feeling that something was missing in his life. Then the Lord intervened and Bruce’s life was drastically changed by the power of God. Since then Bruce has used the talent the Lord has given him to glorify Christ. God has also gifted Brother Frye to preach the Word of God with compassion for those that need the same change he experienced through Christ and the Christians that need to be encouraged along the way. The services are free of charge, although there will be a love offering taken. Come and enjoy soul stirring music from a gracious man of God and hearing a message sent from the Lord. Antrim Baptist Church is located at 4509 Lovejoy Rd. Byron, MI 48418 and is one mile east of Fowlerville Road. If you have any questions you can call the church at (517) 223-3126.

Michigan House Report By Dr. Hank Vaupel 47nd District

Last Monday I was pleased to attend the Michigan legislative visit with MI-TF1’s Task Force Mobili]ation Center Hangar. It was interesting to see their emergency preparedness and statewide search and rescue capabilities while touring their center. (mergency services are an integral part of our state’s safety and we should all be thankful for them. I’m glad I was able to participate in this learning opportunity. *** Last Tuesday, the Michigan House of Representatives passed the road funding package on to the governor’s desk. Although I did not vote in favor of all of the bills in the package, I believe the overall plan addresses many important issues. Under this plan, a total of $1.2 million dollars will be dedicated to road funding, with $600 million coming from the general fund and another $600 million coming from new revenue. This plan includes accountability measures to insure the highest quality roads at the lowest cost and provides tax relief for middle class families through the Homestead Tax Credit. It will also provide an income tax rollback if revenues exceed the rate of inÀation. This plan is not perfect but does provide a long term revenue stream to address the condition of our roads. I am pleased that we were able to come together to create a plan that will save Michigan drivers hundreds of dollars in car repairs each year. *** ,I \RX KDYH DQ\ TXHVWLRQV IRU P\ RI¿FH SOHDVH GR QRW KHVLWDWH WR FDOO DW (517) 373-8835 RU VHQG DQ HPDLO to+DQN9DXSHO#KoXVH PL JoY :HœUH KDSS\ to OLVtHQ to DQ\ FoPPHQtV TXHVtLoQV oU LGHDV \oX PD\ KDYH

Column by Nathaniel Sillin Already dreading what you’ll spend this holiday season? It doesn’t have to be that way. Gifts aren’t the only budget-busting culprit during the holidays. The weeks between Thanksgiving and New Year’s are also a peak time for spending on groceries, travel, events, entertainment, energy, clothes and meals out. Financial advisors recommend you use no more than 1.5 percent of your annual income on holiday spending (http:// www.practicalmoneyskills.com/holiday), so consider the following suggestions to keep it under control: Start with a list and make a budget. Begin your planning by listing every possible holiday expense you’ll face – and don’t stop at gifts. Consult the Practical Money Skills for Life comprehensive holiday budget planner (http://www. practicalmoneyskills.com/yourholidaybudget) to help organize your information and track your spending. Be open about money trouble. If you are facing ¿nancial dif¿culties during the holiday season, don’t spend to hide the problem. Don’t be ashamed to make adjustments and tell friends and family members that you’d like to temporarily downsize your spending until conditions improve. They might actually appreciate a spending reprieve, too. Build a bargain-hunting strike force. Let friends and family know you’re looking for particular toys, gifts, foods or decorating items and volunteer to do the same for them. Save and share coupons. (ncourage your group to ¿nd resources, check prices and share requests and ideas via social media. Results can come back in a matter of minutes. Evaluate all transportation costs. Do you really need to run out of one or two items at a time? Designate certain days of the week for particular items, keep an eye out for free delivery and see if friends and family might want to share errands. Those with large vehicles or trucks can help move, deliver and even install appliances or electronics if they have the skills to do so. Smart transportation choices extend to car pools or public transportation for events and entertainment. Leverage your creativity. If there’s something you make or do really well that people love, consider making such accomplishments into gifts. From specialty food items your friends enjoy, to clothing or art, anything done well can be a gift. Don’t rule out lessons or skilled labor as potential holiday gifts, particularly for relatives who can’t afford such services at this time. Smart shopping for ingredients or supplies can make such creative gifts a real money saver. Build a year-round gift stash. If there are gifts or foodstuffs you can buy on sale and keep for a while, you’ll have a ready source of thank-you gifts for hosts, teachers or co-workers year-round. Set aside a similar area for cards, gift tags and wrapping paper. Also keep in mind that many retailers put holiday-themed items on sale before the holidays are ¿nished. If you think you’ll need these items next year, grab your coupons, take advantage and put those items aside for future gift giving. Late saving for gifts? Do it anyway. If you don’t have

a holiday fund set up, don’t let that keep you from starting one. Every little bit helps. Take 5-10 percent of your next paycheck and set it aside, doing it each week throughout the holidays. If you keep it up, your holiday fund can eventually become an emergency fund to be used for other savings goals, including retirement. Take notes for next holiday season. Create a paper or digital ¿le where you can collect ideas for next year. Check print and online resources like Consumer Reports for items that can be bought at speci¿c times of the year at a discount so you are able to hide them for the holidays – but remember where you hid them. Bottom line: Keeping holidays affordable isn’t a challenge when you’re willing to do a little planning, idea-sharing and record-keeping. Make it an activity you can do year-round. 1DWKDQLHO 6LOOLQ GLUHFWV 9LVDœV ¿QDQFLDO HGXFDWLRQ SURJUDPV 7R IROORZ 3UDFWLFDO 0RQH\ 6NLOOV RQ 7ZLWWHU ZZZ WZLWWHU FRP 3UDFWLFDO0RQH\

State Police offer tips for being prepared for upcoming winter season With winter weather rapidly approaching, the Michigan State 3olice, Emergency Management and Homeland Security Division MS3/EMHSD is encouraging Michiganders to make winter emergency preparedness a priority. “Some Michigan citizens have already experienced their Âżrst snow of the season, reminding us that winter is coming,â€? said Capt. Chris A. Kelenske, Deputy State Director of Emergency Management and Homeland Security and commander of the MS3/EMHSD. “If you havenÂśt done so already, donÂśt wait to take a few extra steps to ensure you and your family are ready for winter.â€? Severe winter weather poses health and safety concerns with extremely cold temperatures, freezing pipes, potential propane shortages and power outages. Michiganders should consider the following actions to be prepared for the upcoming winter months. To prepare your home for winter --Weatherproof your home by installing weather-stripping and caulking and insulating walls, doors and windows. --Insulate any water lines that run along exterior walls so pipes are less likely to freeze. --Lock in a propane rate now and have a backup heating plan, such as a generator, wood stove or Âżreplace. -- Have gas or oil furnaces inspected by a qualiÂżed professional and change the air Âżlter. --Have your Âżreplace and chimney cleaned and inspected. Contact your local Âżre department for a referral or look for a local inspector online. --Install battery-operated carbon monoxide C2

detectors near every sleeping area. CO poisoning is most prevalent when furnaces are turned on to ¿ght cold winter temperatures, but commonly occurs after winter storms and accompanying power outages, when people tend to rely on portable generators for electricity. -- Clean gutters to prevent ice dams from forming. Roof ice dams can cause water to build-up, leading to interior damage. --Clear storm drains along the curb to enable water to drain. If plugged, water has the potential to go into low-lying areas and Àood basements. -- Have an emergency preparedness kit stored safely in your house that includes water, non-perishable food, a ¿rst aid kit, extra batteries, a battery or hand-crank powered radio, emergency lighting or Àashlights, extra blankets and warm clothing. To prepare your vehicle for winter --Have your radiator system serviced before winter and make sure to replace windshield wipers and wiper Àuid with a wintertime mixture that will not freeze. --Replace any worn tires and check air pressure regularly. --Have your brakes, brake Àuid, oil, car battery, heater and exhaust checked to make sure everything is running ef¿ciently -- Keep an emergency preparedness kit in your vehicle stocked with batteries, battery powered or hand-crank radio, Àashlight, windshield scraper, jumper cables, mobile phone charger, shovel, blankets, ¿rst aid kit, non-perishable food and bottled water in the event you get stranded or stuck. For more tips, go to www.michigan.gov/miready or follow the MS3/EMHSD on Twitter at @MichEMHS. The Michigan State Police, Emergency Management and Homeland Security Division is responsible for coordinating state and federal resources to assist local government in response and relief activities in the event of an emergency or disaster, as well as coordinating homeland security initiatives and various federal grants.

By Ben Theriault Gregory Scifers has attended Webberville Schools his whole life. Although this is his last year of being a Webberville Spartan, Scifers has left his mark on Webberville Schools. Scifers is this week’s Senior Spotlight. “I’m really going to miss Webberville Schools. Not being able to see my friends daily, or seeing my favorite teachers, it’s going to be rough,â€? said Scifers. Scifers comes from a very supportive family. He is the son of Tanja and Brian, stepson to his stepmom Tammy, and the brother to Brooke, Taylor, August, and Jaylene. His dad, Brian, is a machinist, his mom, Tanja, is a paraprofessional at Webberville Schools, and his two sisters, Brooke and Taylor, both work with the elderly and are former grads of Webberville. His two stepsisters are August, who works at a daycare, and Jaylene, who is still in school at Howell in the 9th grade. “They are really supportive people,â€? said Scifers. “They’ve helped me with my homework, helped me keep my grades up, and have impacted my future choices.â€? Other than spending time with his family, Scifers’ hobbies include spending time with friends, playing football and basketball, and target practice. “Over the summer, Greg and I would hang out a lot. We’d chill in his basement, or play basketball, or have some target practice together,â€? said fellow senior and close friend George Curtis. As far as school goes, Scifers has participated in school activities, and at the same time, kept his grades in check. Scifers played JV basketball in 9th grade, baseball in 9th and 10th grade, and has also taken part in choir and musical theatre in 9th and 10th grade. His senior year, he is participating in the journalism program. While in these activities, he has paid close attention to his grades. “I am impressed with Greg’s personable nature and motivation,â€? said Journalism Advisor Colleen Scott Keiser. “He has strong communication skills and is very businesslike-he has been a great addition to the staff.â€? Scifers’ future plans deÂżnitely Âżt with his personality. He plans to attend LCC for 2 years, and then either go to Eastern Michigan University, Ferris State, or Oakland University to study sports medicine or sports management. After college, he would like to become an athletic trainer and if not that, he would like to become a machinist like his dad. “Growing up with my dad, he was really into sports, so that started my liking for sports,â€? said Scifers. “Then I realized that I might as well get a job that I will enjoy, so that’s why I decided I wanted to become an athletic trainer.â€? Gregory Scifers has impacted his friends, teachers, and the school and leave important advice for underclassmen. “High school goes by faster than it seems, so enjoy it while it last. Also, don’t Âżght, stay in school, and study for every test, because tests are hard,â€? said Scifers.

Congress’s Problems are Deep-Seated but Fixable

Student of the Week: Bastien Taylor By: Cassidy Wormsbacher Congratulations to Bastien Taylor who has been nominated as the Student of the Week for Fowlerville High School.

Column by Lee H. Hamilton A lot of ink is being spilled about the speakership drama in the U.S. House, the demands by members of the conservative Freedom Caucus, and the turmoil besetting the Republicans who run Capitol Hill. There is a pervasive sense in Washington that Congress has gone, at least temporarily, off the rails. Even members of Congress are saying it. “I think the House is bordering on ungovernable right now,â€? one prominent Republican told NBC earlier this month. I’ve been around congressional politics for over 50 years, and I can’t ever remember hearing a member of Congress say such a thing. All this attention on the crises of the moment suggests that resolving them will Âżx Congress. It won’t. There are three deep-seated issues that have to be addressed before Congress can play a constructive role in sustaining our place in the world and tackling the tough economic and social issues we face at home. The Âżrst sounds simple, but it is not: Congress should work its will by letting its members vote on the major issues of the day. In legislatures, whoever controls procedure usually controls results. In Congress, leaders — and sometimes followers — in both parties for years have manipulated the process to get the results they want. Omnibus bills and continuing resolutions are part of this. Leaders try to avoid tough issues if their caucus members don’t want to vote on them. The 60-vote reTuirement to avoid a Âżlibuster in the Senate plays a role. So does the “Hastert Ruleâ€? in the House, under which a majority of the majority caucus has to give its approval before a measure moves forward. These all carry a cost. Crucial issues facing the American people don’t get addressed. Congress moves from crisis to crisis. Americans give up on the institution. And members get frustrated when they can’t vote on issues they know their constituents want Congress to address. Giving members of the House and the Senate a fair shot at addressing the nation’s challenges would deal Congress back into the policy-making arena. Second, Congress over the years has developed several bad

habits that it needs to Âżx. These include huge bills that become vehicles for special-interest provisions and leadership wishlists; bypassing the committee process; concentrating power in the leaders; curbing the participation of most members; and limiting debates and amendments. The most pernicious of these is the practice of legislating by omnibus bills. These consist of hundreds of provisions, usually drafted in the dead of night by leadership staff — not members of Congress — brought to the Ă€oor with scant time for anyone to read them, limited time for debate, and few amendments allowed. They’re usually timed to come up just before a key deadline on a single up-or-down vote, so that the leadership can threaten a government shutdown if the bill fails. The sad part here is that there are a lot of members who’ve never known anything different. An entire generation on Capitol Hill thinks that bills they had no part in shaping, are unable to debate, and have no choice but to pass are the way Congress runs. It’s not. There’s another way, and it brings me to my third point. We have over 200 years of experience on Capitol Hill that have taught us how to run a legislature so that the voice of the people can be better heard, multiple viewpoints get considered, and ordinary legislators get a fair shot at inĂ€uencing the results. It’s called the “regular order,â€? and it involves committees with authority holding hearings, debating issues, and reporting bills to the Ă€oor, where members get several chances to shape the legislation through amendments. The regular order reTuires negotiation and compromise, and gives members a fair crack at crafting policy for the nation. The American people want Congress to work. They don’t expect a solution to everything, and they certainly don’t expect miracles. But they do expect a Congress that tries to make progress and that’s capable of developing creative approaches to the major problems of the day. The frustration for me is that we know how to do things better with a timetested process, but members of Congress simply ignore it. /HH +DPLOWRQ LV D 'LVWLQJXLVKHG 6FKRODU ,QGLDQD 8QLYHUVLW\ 6FKRRO RI *OREDO DQG ,QWHUQDWLRQDO 6WXGLHV DQG D 3URIHVVRU RI 3UDFWLFH ,8 6FKRRO RI 3XEOLF DQG (QYLURQPHQWDO $IIDLUV +H ZDV D PHPEHU RI WKH 8 6 +RXVH RI 5HSUHVHQWDWLYHV IRU \HDUV

2015 Michigan deer hunting prospects outlined by DNR oI¿cials

By Chad Stewart Deer and Elk Program Specialist Rose Lake Wildlife Research Center, East Lansing & Ashley Autenrieth, Northern Regions Deer Biologist Gaylord Operations Service Center The leading reason many individuals participate in deer hunting is simply the opportunity to spend time outdoors with friends and family, but actually harvesting a deer is still very important to many deer hunters. No amount of hunting guarantees a harvest, but preparation and hard work are keys to producing the best chance to see and take deer, or to mentor a new hunter through a safe and enjoyable season. The 2015 deer season is expected to be a successful year for many hunters, and as always, will certainly offer the exciting challenge we call ‘hunting’. Persistence can pay off for deer hunters. Nationwide, successful deer hunters hunt an average of 18 days – slightly more than the average of about 14 days that 0ichigan deer hunters spent a¿eld last year. +owever, chances for success are greatest for those who are prepared. Part of hunting preparations each year includes becoming familiar with the most recent regulations. Some successful hunting trips are just a result of being in the right place at the right time. Overall, deer activity tends to be highest a few weeks prior to breeding. The peak of breeding activity for Michigan deer generally occurs just prior to the opening of the ¿rearm deer season. These peak breeding dates are earliest in the southern Lower Peninsula, except that many does in the region that were born just this spring will already conceive their ¿rst fawns this year. Those breeding events for young does often occur a month or more later than they do for older deer, often not until midDecember. +unters often seek to take advantage of these times of high deer movements, so archery hunting activity is often highest in late October and early November, followed by the busiest deer hunting day of the year -- the opening of the ¿rearm season. In southern Michigan, another late period of deer activity can occur several weeks prior to the late breeding events among young does, which can coincide with the end of the ¿rearm season. WHAT TO EXPECT ACROSS THE STATE The 2014 season saw a drop in deer harvest in the majority of the Midwestern United States, and Michigan was not an exception. +unting success decreased somewhat across the state; though a little more than 5 out of every 10 hunters were still able to take home at least one deer last season. The decrease in harvest occurred across the entire state but was most pronounced in the Upper Peninsula. The Upper Peninsula experienced severe and prolonged winters in 2012 and 2013, and deer harvest was expected to decline as a result. Both the Upper Peninsula and Northern Lower Peninsula experienced high snowfall just prior to the ¿rearm opener which made for extremely dif¿cult hunting conditions across much of Northern Michigan. Areas in the Southern Lower Peninsula were still recovering from the Epizootic +emorrhagic Disease outbreak that occurred in the summer of 2012 as well. The winter of 2014 started early and continued into spring throughout most of the state, leading to another harsh winter in many northern areas. Low temperatures and above average snowfall made for dif¿cult conditions for deer, most notably in the Upper Peninsula for the third winter in a row. Some areas may see decreased numbers of yearlings as a result but overall there appears to be good survival throughout much of the Lower Peninsula regions. The 2015 deer season is forecasted to have similar to slightly increased success rates to last year. Please see below for more detailed information about the area you hunt and what to expect. Though, this may help to get you started with what to look for there is no substitute for scouting. The opportunity to ¿nd out which trees are producing, what deer trails are being utilized and what patterns deer are following this year is priceless information for a deer hunter. So, whether your goal is to get meat in the freezer, go for a wall hanger or simply get outdoors, Michigan’s deer seasons offer something for everyone. Best of luck to you hunters and have a wonderful and safe deer season.

UPPER PENINSULA The Upper Peninsula (UP) has experienced three severe winters in a row. This has led to decreased deer numbers throughout the region with losses occurring most notably in the 1.5 and 2.5 year old age classes. In 2014, as part of the ¿rst cycle of multiple year deer regulations, biologists recommended closing all public land and all but three private land deer management units for antlerless licenses in order to allow deer numbers to rebound. The three units currently open for private land antlerless licenses are located in the south central portion of the UP which typically has higher deer populations than anywhere else in the UP. Antlerless permits are available in Deer Management Units: 055 (Menominee), 122 (Norway), and 155 (Gladstone). New for 2015: concern for the deer herd has remained high after 2014 proved to be another severe winter for the UP. Therefore, the decision was made by the Natural Resources Commission to no longer allow the harvest of antlerless deer with either the single deer license or a combination deer license during the archery season. Archery hunters may only harvest antlerless deer if they have an antlerless license. This change does not affect the Liberty or Independence +unt and does not impact Mentored Youth. The production of mast (fruit and nuts) in the UP has been low throughout much of the region this year. There is some acorn and beechnut production but it is spotty throughout the region so hunters will need to scout in order to ¿nd these areas. Although mast production was low this year there was enough heat and rain towards the end of the summer to have a productive growing season giving deer many other food sources to seek out. In general, hunters should expect to see fewer deer, especially in the 1.5 and 2.5 year old age classes. Always keep in mind that each area is inÀuenced by local factors and conditions that affect deer density and sightings in that area. The largest bucks (heaviest and largest antlers) typically come from agricultural areas, but nice bucks are also taken from forested areas where access is limited and they have an opportunity to get older. NORTHERN LOWER PENINSULA The deer population for the Northern Lower Peninsula (NLP) is expected to be on the increase in comparison to last year. Even with the severe winter this past year deer in the NLP came through it in fair to good condition. Deer sightings have been good throughout the region and many have reported seeing healthy fawns including many sets of twins and even some triplets. Though it appears some deer may have been lost due to the severe winter the main impacts observed from winter will likely be smaller body size and/or antlers rather than lower populations. Mast production (fruits and nuts) has been spotty throughout the region. For the second year in a row high production of apples are being reported. Acorn and beechnut production is diverse with some areas seeing decent production and others reporting none. Deer should be targeting the producing areas freTuently. Scouting to ¿nd these areas will be very important. Contacting your local wildlife of¿ce may be a good ¿rst step; they may be able to give you insight as to which areas are producing. Expect to see similar to increased deer numbers compared to last year throughout most of the NLP. Many areas may see more 2.5 year old bucks this year as well since a number of NLP counties began a 3 point antler point restriction in 2013 which allowed the majority of 1.5 year old bucks to mature to the next age class this year. All NLP Deer Management Units are open for antlerless hunting so be sure to look in the 2015 Antlerless Deer Digest if you are interested in obtaining an antlerless license. SOUTHERN LOWER PENINSULA Abundant food and cover in the form of agricultural crops and scattered swamps and woodlots provide very good habitat across the southern Michigan landscape. This high quality habitat, combined with relatively mild winter conditions, typically results in a more abundant and productive deer

population compared to other regions of the state. Over the last decade or more, deer population estimates and indices (including deer/vehicle collisions, crop damage complaints, and observations of deer by the hunting community and ¿eld staff) in the Southern Lower Peninsula have stabilized or declined. In many instances, reductions were intended to reduce conÀicts that can occur when deer populations are high, though the Department still desires to keep adequate deer for enjoyable hunting and viewing experiences. Repeated outbreaks of Epizootic +emorrhagic Disease (E+D), however, have also occurred over this period. Though individual E+D outbreak sites affect deer at the scale of a township or smaller, these outbreaks have likely produced more variability in deer densities across southern Michigan than has occurred in many years. Management efforts are now being directed towards distinct areas at a smaller scale rather than larger. Research is underway to improve understanding of the duration of E+D impacts that hunters and landowners should expect to see where outbreaks have occurred. Given the higher proportion of land in private ownership in this region, and the often small property sizes, the Department is working to ¿nd more ways to support good deer harvest and habitat management decisions among networks of private landowners and hunters. WHERE TO HUNT As any deer hunter knows deer are not stationary animals, they are constantly moving to new places and just as often, they are returning to familiar spots. Michigan’s deer herd is no exception. It is spread out across the state and often, locally pocketed in areas with the best habitat and resources available. For this reason there is no better way to locate deer than by getting out on the landscape and scouting. Learning where this year’s deer trails are, ¿nding which oak trees are producing acorns and discovering where a group is bedding down each night are often the keys to a successful hunt. Michigan also offers a number of online interactive tools such Mi-+UNT, an interactive web application located at www.michigan.gov/mihunt, to help you hone in on good habitat and potential hunting spots. If you ¿nd yourself short on time these tools are an excellent way to save some time and narrow down your selection.
