Hello All, my father will be 73 in November. He lives near Marion and had a property he hunted for many years that got sold. I know its a long shot but I was wondering if by chance someone needed a partner around Marion. He has one very small property that he saved for gun season last year and was able to get a doe. He hunted with his crossbow at Mississinewa during the week but never saw anything. At his age obviously he is not into access that is difficult and is probably why he hasn't seen deer at the reservior. He doesn't know I am posting this but I think he might be interested in going out more if someone needs a partner. He is retired and can hunt about any day.

I don't have private land available to me but i could show you/him were i hunt on public land (its around the Bloomington area tho). I'm thinking about heading out to hang a stand or two this weekend and once i do, i wouldn't mind putting him in them. I also have a climber so if he wanted to go, he could sit in the ladder stand and i'll go with my climber. I can set up a few 100 yds away no problem. Of course there's no promise of encounters let alone kills, although i do feel pretty good about my scouting efforts of the area. I assume he's in relatively good health. The trek in isn't too treacherous (1/2 - 3/4 mile in, rolling terrain).

He did get drawn for Big Oaks for the gun hunt on Nov 8 and 9 and we are going on that hunt. |
