Governor Tim Pawlenty says he's heading to Thief River Falls in northwestern Minnesota for this year's deer hunting opener on Nov. 6.
It's the seventh annual governor's deer opener, which Pawlenty has used to highlight different parts of the state.
Last year's opener was held in east-central Minnesota with events in Cambridge, North Branch and Isanti.
Except for a four-point buck in 2004, Pawlenty hasn't had much luck on opening day of the deer hunting season.
