In Wisconsin, If someone is in violation of 948.60, they cannot open carry.
The law I referenced pertains to Wisconsin state law regarding local municipality ordinances. The law you referenced is part of state law, and not a local ordinance.
Edit: Basically, the state decides when, where, and who can carry a firearm, not local municipalities. For example, a township can't pass an ordinance against carrying a firearm (open or concealed) in restaurants.
This is what I stumbled upon regarding the issue of his age https://thedonald.win/p/GvP7nwY4/x/c/15K6leOBRU
He may fall under the "Part of an armed or police force" exception, if he can establish he was part of the militia protecting property there (he was.)
I find no restriction for open carry by age. If you can legally possess the gun in Wisconsin, you can legally open carry it.

So the law you linked means the law I referenced cannot be enforced, correct?

Yes, and he is allowed to possess a long gun because he is over 16, see WI Stat. 948.60(3)(c)
