Hunters reminded to prioritize gun safety this deer season 

With the Minnesota Deer Gun season set to kick off on Saturday, hunters are reminded to make sure they are following the proper gun safety practices. Polk County Sheriff Jim Tadman shares some of the proper practices that all hunters need to be following this season. 

Tadman says hunters also need to keep total control of their muzzle, and know where and what they’re shooting at.
