The answer depends on what license you hold. Bonus antlerless are bonus antlerless no matter what is used. If you have a bundle license and have not tagged an antlered deer, you can use that as a muzzle loader tag on an antlerless deer or an antlered deer.

Muzzleloader tag is a buck tag. If they don't allow bonus tags it sounds like they are buck only and you would need a muzzleloader tag or perhaps a military/refuge license is usuable there as well; since you didn't say where you are going so not sure about this. Make sure you understand the rules for that area.

Just from a quick look around it appears you are right; I'm thankful for the bundle - they still need to do away with all these different licenses. Please look at KY IDNR & NRC, please........

It is confusing, but hey, it's indiana and they wouldn't have it any other way. They need a complete overhaul on the tags instead of just adding them here an there and making it worse.
It's either sex unless you've killed a buck with archery or filled your firearms tag, then it's an antlerless tag. Not a bonus antlerless though, so I assume it can still be used on F&WA that don't allow bonus permits and doesn't count against your county antlerless quota.

If you have a lifetime license, you essentially have any tag you need in your pocket already. Therefore you already hold a bundle license, a shotgun license, a ML license, etc.
Sounds like your concern is in the tagging. Assuming does are legal to shoot with a gun in the F&W area you are planning to hunt, I think you could tag your doe with one of your three bundle tags.
Somebody please correct me if this is not the case.

I take it you are wanting to go to a FWA but they don't allow bonus tags you will need a ML licence to use a muzzleloader on those FWA's. If you live in SW Indiana & want to use you ML on your bonus tags you can go to Posey county & hunt one of the nature preserves like Twin Swamps or Section 6 Hardwoods land they allow bonus tags to be used. Here is a map that will show them.(they are shotgun & muzzleloader only)(NO BOW) www.in.gov/dnr/fishwild/5427.htmBut you can't use them on Hovey Lake property, so be careful of what property you are on when hunting, get maps from the check-in stations. A lot of the property out there touch each other so watch for prop. signs. |

Duck:
If you decide to go to Sugar Ridge FWA, give me a call. Unless you have your heart set on it, you are welcome to hunt at my place as I am only about 4 1/2 miles from Sugar Ridge FWA. Send you a PM with my cell number.

Go, shoot your doe, tag it as your Muzzle Loader deer. Does are legal on FaWA's doing muzzle Loader season just like they are legal during archery season. Have fun. Be safe. Good luck. |

Only the firearm tag is designated antlered only What Woody said. ML tag is either sex, firearm tag is buck only. duck, 1) A question is a whole lot less confusing when punctuation is used. 2) I presume you checked in the first doe with a bonus antlerless tag? If not a CO may be paying you a visit if you checked it in with a firearm tag. 3) You should be able to purchase a ML tag and use it to shoot a doe at the F&W area. You can call the F&W area and ask them, the local CO, or DNR customer service during the week. you can also post the question in the "Ask the CO" section. |

As for the rest of your post, I was only able to partially make sense of it and gave up. The only thing more confusing than Indiana deer regs are the waterfowl seasons, and reading a post without punctuation  |

The way that I have understood it. I have a lifetime license and can kill 1 buck and as many does as my county allows, and then go to another and kill their quota throughout the state. I have always just killed the deer with whatever weapon is legal, and written out my transport tag, and it goes under a lifetime license tag. I don't think that there is a worry about bonus, gun, or muzzle loader tag. If the weapon is legal and the area allows doe harvest you will be just fine.

At Pigeon River the sign in the check station plainly states bonus tags are not valid on their property for bow, firearms or muzzle loader. You can harvest a doe with a bow or muzzle loader tag. I think the propertys that are the same are all listed in the handbook. If you have one of those new fangled cellular phones it won't cost you to call the property and get the answer straight from them.
