DULUTH, Minn. — With the Minnesota firearms deer season starting Nov. 7, the News Tribune asked Craig Engwall, executive director of the Minnesota Deer Hunters Association, to answer some questions about the status of deer and deer hunting in the state.
Nearly 20,000 of Minnesota's estimated 450,000 deer hunters are members of MDHA, the state's largest deer hunters group. Engwall, a former Minnesota Department of Natural Resources attorney and regional official, has headed the group since January, 2014.
Engwall lives and does his deer hunting near Dora Lake, northwest of Grand Rapids in the Chippewa National Forest.
