Both gun and tag were won at Northwoods Youth Deer Hunt Challenge

Tyson Skubal, 17, of Hazehurst went bear hunting for the first time this year. But what makes the story a dream come true, was how the hunt happened. At the Northwoods Youth Deer Hunt Challenge banquet back in January, Skubal won a 30.06 rifle. That was a great surprise for him, but this summer, that surprise would get bigger and bigger. At the Northwoods Youth Deer Hunt Challenge, Skubal also put his name in a drawing for a bear tag that was donated by Vern Schaller.
