In 1987 Peabody said it "was getting rid of a headache for them" with the signing of the agreement Tax incentives and no liability for trespassing any more. They got a good deal out it too. The state was very fortunate that Peabody allowed use of the Minnehaha property for as long as they did, people should be thankful, not bent out of shape about this. If I were going to change any laws it would be the firearms season structure / duration. Do something like Illinois; a 3 day season late rut, a 4 day season early December, then a 3 day muzzy season in mid December. No other firearms hunting.

Is this the future of hunting in Indiana? This piece of property being offered up for lease is part of a large block of the former Minehaha FWA sold to a wealthy land owner who lives in Terre Haute. He has leased the whole thing... Now available for lease for $45/acre!! This is not prime land as you might find in Buffalo Co, WI or Pike county, IL. It's all spoil bank coal hills! Used to be open for any one to hunt and fish on, watch wildlife, pick morels, etc. Now access comes with a laughable high price-tag. What a shame! www.basecampleasing.com/6961/Sullivan-County-Indiana-Hunting-Lease.html We are quickly moving to the European model of hunting and fishing in this country. The whole 12,500 acres will soon be closed to the IN public who enjoy hunting, fishing, and wildlife watching forever. www.mywabashvalley.com/news/minnehaha-fwa-closing

drives are risky if you don't know what you are doing, I hope these 2 consider this a lesson learned.

Thank you Billy. I will tell you, it's not a fluke. He has put in the time at the range to become a good marksman for age 12 and will continue to improve. He shoots .22 rifles and Gamo air rifles often We have a makeshift 50 yard range in our backyard. When the time came, he knew he could deliver an accurate shot. I think I was more nervous than him. =) iv come back on because what has really impressed me is this young mans shot placement, as far as i am concerned for someone hunting meat it is about perfect, height and right behind the shoulder. Young man you are welcome to come over the ocean here and stalk with me anytime you like. Dad has done a good job teaching. Oh you can come as well dad, lol Regards Billy

Haha, he grabbed my M65 coat on the way out the door when he felt the sunday morning temps.
He was wearing his size 12 coveralls under there. Look close, it's a .50 caliber muzzleloader =)
Just looked up the HEC suit. WOW, just think how many more deer could I have bagged had I been blocking my electrical field the past 22 deer seasons?? =)

good point, opening weekend is always wild. I know spots which get virtually no pressure through the week I would never hunt opening weekend. The last week of bow is always good before gun opens up.

This is my son Harrison's first deer. We were in a ladder stand overlooking a well traveled funnel. 2 does suddenly appeared to our left. He had to wait until the largest cleared a large cottonwood tree and presented a broadside shot. He was setup with the rifle shouldered and ready to deliver the shot when the opportunity presented. It was a perfect heart shot with the .50 caliber CVA muzzle loader and we saw her fall after travelling 30 yard or so. Now he wants to fill that buck tag! I am so proud of him. He is an expert trapper and now a deer hunter!

all public land is not created equal. There is good public land you have to find it.

shaking my head. Why would anyone ever take this shot with a crossbow?

make it a sliding scale based on age. With the right pricing, it would be financially viable....
