We noticed this at work the other night. I figured it was kind of like when deer season opened the week before Thanksgiving. Wish they would make it a week earlier, but they are fun to hunt at the end of season too. Guess I have to work two days (maybe  ) of season before I am off for 7. |

I was wondering about Easter being on the 24th this year. I know it's a little selfish but I always enjoy a beer when I get back to the truck and usually give it up for Lent so this works fine for me! LOL

I will get tuned up in Ky, and then come home to Indiana for turkey season? Here's hoping 2 birds (Toms) this year, I always thought Indiana season was always late any ways Tom's are hened up and break away, and then looking again, Lets hope Good Luck all.....

Firt off, they should have issued an emergancy order and moved the youth season forward one week. Second, Indiana would benefit with two zones, and have the south zone opening about a week earlier. It's a lot more fun when they gobble more and the peak of the gobbling will be long past by the 27th.

Steve and I tried....Second, Indiana would benefit with two zones, and have the south zone opening about a week earlier. It's a lot more fun when they gobble more and the peak of the gobbling will be long past by the 27th. I can buy that. Indiana is a narrow and tall state and KY and TN is wide and short. |

Although beneficial, I dont want to see the northern half of the state flock to the south for an early season. The same as I'm sure they would feel if it were the other way around.  |
