This will be our second annual. Come as you are. We aren't picky.
Second Annual Southern Indiana Bowhunt (http://residents.bowhunting.net/sticknstring/2008JWBowhunt.html)
I sure hope i can make it this year John! I gotta gets things straightened out at work but as of now i plan on trying to make it.
I'm thinking I'd like to come down and join you.
Chad, :)
Michael, love to have you.
It is really a low key, hi fun event. We had 4 or 5 states represented last year and even a guy from Germany stopped in.

John, I checked out the 2007 hunt on your website. Were those 2 deer shot during that hunt? Nice looking area.
John, I am going to try and make it this year.I will know if I can make the trip by August or September.
The deer were both shot during the hunt on private land nearby. There are plenty of deer on the public land though. Just ask the 10 or so hanging around camp every night.

I was there last year....
Deer were seen. I had one within 20 yds but, a radio beep happened...such is life...
The comradarie is worth the price of admission. The scenery is great.
All who can should join us. At least one South Carolinian will be joining us.
C'mon October........
I wouldn't mind it but it is impossible to get an NBEF course over here in KY. All the ones in IND. are on days I'm working. Is there an NBEF anymore ?
Danny - someone else will need to back me up...I don't think you need to take the NBEF course to hunt Indiana...if you were born after ?1984?
That said ; I'd like to attend to the course as well...
TTT
You don't have to have the NBEF cert for regular hunting seasons. Some quota hunts require it though. This hunt occurs on public land during the regular archery season.
Born after 84 you do need a Hunter Ed certificate (card) to buy a license.
The state-to-state difference of the hunter educ. requirement is amazing. For Colorado the cutoff birthdate is 1949.
Thanks for the info. guys !! I was wanting one because I was told years ago if I left Ky., I had to have one. I have my hunter's ed. I got it to hunt Fort Knox. I would like to get it because, hopefully some day, I'll go to Newfoundland with my uncle Charlie to caribou and moose hunt. To skewer a moose is my ultimate big game goal. Thanks again and I'll check back with 'ya. I think it will be $150.00 for me to bag one of your big bucks across the creek. Take care.
MY BAD...I shoulda typed 'born before ?1984?' not 'after'...
Thanks for the backup Tim.
I reserve a spot for that weekend in my calendar.Would be fun to see you again..

I just wanted to bring this to the top. I have had a few emails and other requests for information. I will also likely be in camp a lot this year since my three kids will be with me. That'll be good and bad but it will still be fun. I anticipate lots more bowbuilding and cooking :)
So, if you have kids, don't hesitate to bring them too.
Is it time to pack yet, John??
tecum-tha, we will be glad to have you
Brent and I will be there with 2 new trad guys
C'MON OCTOBER !!
Getting closer :archer: If anyone is thinking of coming i'd suggest doing it. Nice campgrounds and some good hunting areas
ttt
The kids and I will get in to the campground on Friday morning. We'll set up camp and then go shoot squirrels or something. Between the three hunters we chould be able to get enough for squirrel chili on Friday night.
I plan to have a tiller tree and at least one vise so we can whittle while it's cooking.
See you all in a couple weeks.
I really wish I could go, but I work that weekend.
Hoping to get in Thursday evening,Friday by noon for sure.
There are a lot of you guys who just read and don't post..and some who post...All of ya do what ya can to stop by and and say HI!
Last year we had some that stayed around the campground and just hung out; some were in and out, some just stopped by for a bit...
It was as much fun meeting and chatting as hiking/hunting...not to mention glow in the dark items...hehehe...C Ya'll soon.

I'm out! Had a day off work and the camping gear packed. My son, daughter-in-law and GRANDSON are coming up that weekend. I'd still love to go, but I don't get to see Andrew near enough. Have a great time and safe hunting to all! Mike
