Indy hunter,
I hunt right about where you described. It's a small world isn't it?

RE: Any INDIANA hunters out there
 

huntinfool, sure is. It kills me not being able to hunt there anymore. That area was incredible for deer and turkey both. You know where Bear Creek Church is?

IU VS PURDUE 20:00 ON WTTV-4 TONIGHT.

RE: Any INDIANA hunters out there
 

Indianahick, I use to live in T.Haute. I still do a lot of dove hunting in Sullivan County. Unfortunately, none of the farmers there I know have any woods, it is all tillable. I use to hunt a place right on the Vigo/Vermillion County line. I haven't been there for a couple years, and the last time I talked to the owner he was in pretty bad health. Assuming he still owns the farm, it is possibility for you. I killed quite a few deer on that farm. The only problem was, the owner gave permission to almost everyone who asked. He is the type of guy that assumes if he has a bunch of hunters, then more deer will be killed. His place is 60 or 70 acres I would guess, half of that being wooded. So there were years where there was a piece of orange every 100 yards(or at least it seemed like it). I have no idea if the place is still like that or not, or if he still owns it. Other than dove hunting, thats all I know of in that area.
Oh, and ya gotta love them Hoosiers. Just imagine if they still had JJ.

RE: Any INDIANA hunters out there
 

I live in Lake Co. and own land in Porter Co., but hunt in Iowa & Kansas where the big boys live, due to our poor buck management. Hope everyone has a happy new year.

Roger,

It's a shame more folks don't take an interest in pressuring our DNR to manage responsibly. I think the vast majority don't know how good it could be or worse yet don't care. And all Jim Mitchell's policies are governed by public sentiment, not sound game management practices. I can't tell you how many times I've heard laughs from Iowa natives when I tell them we have 32 gun days, 16 of which are in November. They rightfully protect their bucks during their vulnerable time. But politics rules hear.

Funny thing is I always wonders what makes deer different from other state biology management decisions, like fish slot limits, turkey re-introduction, prairie grass plantings, tree plantings, etc. I never recall these things being managed based on public balloting, like the deer. Seems these are managed solely on responsible modern biology management techniques. Why don't they do the same for deer? It sucks.

RE: Any INDIANA hunters out there
 

Zim, I agree whole heartedly, until we quit gun hunting the rut this is the best we are going to get. With the habitat and feed we have Indiana should be one of the top Trophy producers. Hunted Kansas this fall and really enjoyed hunting unpressured bucks in Dec.

RE: Any INDIANA hunters out there
 

Roger, Were you able to take one in Kansas? We normally archery hunt there but my buddy drew a rifle tag this year and got a really nice one. There's a photo on my homepage:

Zim, Yes I took a 145+ with a muzzleloader, was the best I seen. Was a little disapointed in quaintity and quality of the hunt. Looking to go again or maybe Missouri any suggestions?

RE: Any INDIANA hunters out there
 

The new one buck rule should help increase the size of the bucks and cut down on the shooting of smaller bucks. Around here T.H. there plenty of 8-12 point bucks taken that weighed in anywhere from 180-265 lbs field dressed. Personally I have only shot one antlered buck in the last three years and yet my freezer has not been empty. But then again I hunt for the meat and not the rack. Back in the 70's when I started deer hunting you were only allowed to shoot bucks with either a bow or shotgun. There are considerably more deer now than there was then. I hunted the same woods from the mid 70's to the late 90's when the area got closed down to make a wildlife preserve. And from the early 80's on you could see the herd increase in the amount of deer there. Good food, Good genetics, made decent sized bucks and great does for the area. Bucks ran from 175-220 field dressed and does went up to 155 or better. The added seasons and bag limits did not hurt the herd. Poachers were and more than likely are still a much larger problem in that area.
