"Looking for a buck" in Vilas County, but Gov. Walker fails to bag deer

MADISON — It looks like Gov. Scott Walker's gun deer hunt is a bust, at least so far.

Walker spokeswoman Laurel Patrick said he hunted on Sunday and Monday. He tweeted Sunday that he was "looking for a buck" in Vilas County and posted a picture of snow-covered woods. He tweeted again Monday that he was "back at it," with another picture of snow-dusted trees. Later Monday he tweeted that it was snowing but his view was amazing and included another picture of the woods.

He tweeted again on Wednesday that he didn't see any deer. This time he included a picture of himself in the woods holding his rifle.

Patrick didn't immediately respond when asked if Walker might take to the woods again before the season ends Nov. 29.
