RE: How come you dont hear about it?
Indiana is the only state Ive ever hunted. And yes there are some monsters
|
RE: How come you dont hear about it?
i dont doubt theres monsters jus seemed like tome you hear more about ohio illinois the states around it...

RE: How come you dont hear about it?
It's a state with conflicting numbers. You can kill over 300 deer in a season but the total harvest numbers are around 150,000. A good 100,000 behind Ohio and we can take about 6 total.
I've seen some monsters from the southern part of the state. |

SHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!

RE: How come you dont hear about it?
read an article about it a while back.
It stated about long rifle seasons...during the rut, I believe, therefore less bucks make it to maturity. There's no doubt IN has great soils and is a big buck state, just poorly managed is what it comes down to, so mentioned the article, but I had always wondered about that myself. It's centered in between buck states so it should. I think the article came after a recent change to their law there....somethingto hopefully improve the state. Personally it sounds like Iowa has one of the best management programs for producing big bucks. |
RE: How come you dont hear about it?
funny thing is i live in Sullivan i hunt public land a fish and wildlife area. There were only 23 bow hunters opening day. and 300 gun hunters opening day. On 8000 acres.
I saw a 11 point buck i would give anything to shoot. But i am lucky this area is the main hunting area for the south and central area of Indiana ORIGINAL: MdDave how comes you dont hear much about the state of indiana an big bucks... you hear alot about ohio kentucky. illinois, wisconsin iowa.. indiana is right in the middle of it all...maybe im jus not listenin to hard? |
RE: How come you dont hear about it?
yes you can kill over 300 in you hutn every county. must do not do that for my county the limit is 2 with bow one doe and onebuck or two does. one buck with gun if not taken with bow. A doe or buck with muzzleloader.
Then you get 3 bonus tags. so 7 if you take you buck with a shotgun. you get one buck a year. ORIGINAL: nodog It's a state with conflicting numbers.

RE: How come you dont hear about it?
Ky. is not a big buck state. I've seen giants in IN.:eek:

RE: How come you dont hear about it?

I've seen some monsters from the southern part of the state. That's just nuts. The thing that makes me scratch my head is the total harvest. If it is a good place to invest some out of state time, it certainly doesn't show it in harvested game. Deer don't care what state there in. In. has the same thing Oh. and Ill. has, the river. There's your key. |

RE: How come you dont hear about it?
i agree kevin. they do a good job managing the herd here. They have corn and bean fields on the fish and wildlife area.
And i have found more clover/sorgum fields then i can count. i have found area been if for hunting or fishing no one know or the people who know will not tell you about. Some areas are real nice but try finding a marker or sign to get there. Plus a gps will do you about as much good as a stick for a weapon come deer season.
