Do many people hunt here after firearms season? I was thinking about maybe going on a stalk/sit on the ground hunt there sometime during muzzleloader season. I don't have a climber or easily portable stand, but I don't mind sitting on the ground. I can also hunt through the week, not just weekends so, can probably be there with less hunters. I've been scouting through there before and just want a change of scenery to maybe take a doe or 2.
Also, anyone hunt the newer section of forestry off Highway 67 and duckworth road?
I can't wait to get hunting in this snow we've got coming. I've always had good luck in the snow.

I haven't hunted there yet but some friends said the deer were really moving in that area during guns season and both took a nice buck. Good Luck. If anyone has any nice park maps detailing the boundaries it would be appreciated if you would post it.

I have hunted there since moving to Indiana in 08. I hunt mostly on week days and find I have the place to myself most of the time. The first week of firearm season is the only time I see people mid week. After that I only see other hunters on weekends. I have had a lot of success hunting there with the exception of this year. My deer sightings were way down and I have yet to harvest a deer. They have been doing a lot of logging in the area I like to hunt and that has effected deer movement patterns. I'm hoping to have some snow for this weekend so I can see what the deer are up to.

Yeah, I can't wait for this snow either. |

I bow hunted there on weekends. Never ran into other hunters, just rude hikers. I was going to go back next weekend with my bow since my muzzleloader is in MI.
