Wisconsin deer research / Florence County
Florence County, Wisconsin Deer Hunting Research
Florence County is unranked in the provisional Wisconsin FDR Deer Herd Index Provisional.
Florence County stays unranked on FDR's provisional deer herd index because Wisconsin reports harvest for this northern region by deer management unit, not by county. Without a stable county-level harvest series, the index cannot assign Florence a fair score or rank the way it does for other Wisconsin counties. This research page keeps the statewide context and notes that the ranking stays withheld until county-level harvest data exists.
Trophy Index
25↑ out of 100. How this county ranks for trophy bucks against every county we cover. 100 is the top. Ranked per acre of bow-huntable land (10 m estimate).
Harvest trend
WDNR's 2025 Northern/Central Forest DMU boundary change reports this county's harvest by DMU code, not by county, so no county-grain harvest series is available.
