Deer Drop-In Mondays

Hunting

Deer Drop-In Mondays

This fall, the Department of Natural Resources wants to say "thank you" to Michigan hunters. The DNR’s Hunter Appreciation: Deer Drop-In Mondays are happening at locations across the state, and all hunters are invited to drop-in and say hello. Harvested deer are welcome but certainly not required.

Deer Drop-In Mondays

This fall, the Department of Natural Resources wants to say "thank you" to Michigan hunters. The DNR’s Hunter Appreciation: Deer Drop-In Mondays are happening at locations across the state, and all hunters are invited to drop-in and say hello. Harvested deer are welcome but certainly not required.

Each Deer Drop-In Monday offers the chance to bring in a deer or lower jaw for aging, pick up free hunting swag* like patches, stickers, hand warmers, field-dressing gloves and more, and connect with DNR staff and fellow hunters and talk about the season. We hope you’ll stop by and share your story with us.

Mark your calendar and drop in at a location near you.

*Swag may vary by location, while supplies last.
