While we still have snow on the ground in northern Minnesota, three of us from MNBOW are heading south for our annual trip to southern Kansas for a weekend of coyote hunting and shed hunting.

Conditions look great this year, and we’ll be posting shed hunting updates while we’re in the field—so check back throughout the weekend and follow along to see what we find! 🦌

Reminder: Today is the Last Day!

The City of Sartell is closing public input today on its proposed urban bowhunting ordinance.

If you’d like to share your thoughts on allowing regulated bowhunting within city limits as a deer management tool, now is the time.

Minnesota’s current law allows crossbows during the full archery deer season — and we believe it should stay that way. If you don't agree, don't buy a crossbow.

Over the past several weeks, we’ve received numerous messages from concerned hunters. Because of that feedback, we felt it was necessary to create this petition — to keep things the way they are and to better promote inclusivity within our bowhunting community.

There is no reason to roll back opportunity.
This is about fairness, inclusion, and protecting archery opportunity for all hunters across Minnesota.

✍️ Add your name today and stand with Minnesota bowhunters.

Together, we protect the future of bowhunting.

Keep crossbows legal for the entire MN archery season

Where Did All the Anti-Hunting Groups Go?

They may not be loud anymore — but that doesn’t mean they’re gone.

Sometimes opposition shows up as delays, red tape, or institutions that don’t support conservation the way they should.

Pay attention. Protect our traditions.

A tip of the cap to our advisor Tony Roettger for taking a bobcat with his bow this season.

Opportunities like that don’t come around often, and when they do, you’ve got to be patient and ready. Cool hunt, well earned, and a great reminder of how unpredictable bowhunting in Minnesota can be.

Also worth noting — the bobcat never stood a chance against that sweet mustache. 😄
