    Has anyone seen this in the printed copy of the regs? Pretty big mistake IMO. Someone else caught this, but I thought I’d share.

    What’s the screw up? I have not hunted in MN in close to 20 years but, but if I remember right, you could only shoot 2 a day back then.

    It says you can shoot three birds during the early season – Oct. 12-Nov. 30th.

    I like the printed version. Hopefully they make the same mistake with the fishing regs next year with regards to 2 lines. Now that I think about it, they could allow 2 lines for the late season. Could start after Labor Day.

    Definitely a mistake. Should be 2 from Oct 12 – Nov 30 and 3 from Dec 1 – Jan 1. Good catch. Wonder if the DNR is aware of it.

    Numerous people are saying that the DNR is aware of the problem.

    The online regs have been updated with the correct info. That’s a pretty big screw up – and the worst part is that it’s an obvious error to those who regularly pheasant hunt, but might not be to a newbie trying to learn the ropes.

    They do say if there are discrepancies between the printed regs and online regs, that the online regs are the ones to follow. Which makes the printed reg book a tad unreliable IMO.
