we have been talking about "deer management" for years and now we have low numbers and people are going crazy. go on facebook and look up bucks of Indiana, and look at all the big bucks people have posted, I was amazed. You think people are being more selective of what they are shooting. maybe people who have been shooting all the deer there "hunny whole" need to change things up

We should do a survey as follows: Bow Hunt only before gun Bow Hunt only all season Gun Hunt only Gun Hunt and Muzzleloader only Muzzleloader only Bow and gun hunt Bow and muzzleloader hunt All three (bow, gun and Muzzleloader) Bow, Gun and muzzleloader if needed Do it... Make a poll and see where it goes.. I will tomorrow.

What happened to the massive deer kill due to the use of high powered rifles in the prime rut time?

What happened to the massive deer kill due to the use of high powered rifles in the prime rut time? I've wondered that same thing....plus wasn't there supposed to be scores of people fleeing the woods and fields due to the thousands of errant shots fired from hundreds and hundreds of yards away?

I didn't even take advantage of the new rules. I could have, but chose to use the .450 when was legal last year. I might give it a try next year.

No matter how you look at it alot of deer were still killed. There will also be enough deer to go around next year.

The buck I saw this year has made a few appearances on my cam so I'm extremely happy for that and hope I get to see him again.

They could have survived, but liked where they went better ...nah! For 4 years now we've had one buck that is around until velvet comes off and then is gone, but ALWAYS comes back around end of November to first of December like clockwork. Also have another GIANT (Biggest buck I've gotten on cam ever) that swings in EVERY year for about a 2 week window before and after Christmas.

It just thrills me to see them, especially eating something that I have provided for them.
