4th Annual Southern Indiana Bowhunt

[John Scifres]

Please consider joining us for the   4th Annual Southern Indiana Bowhunt  Oct 8-11 in Jackson-Washington State Forest near Brownstown, IN.

[Billy]

at least think about joining us...we won't be hard to find. We're usually two or three sites and make up 90% of the occupancy!!

I'm planning to be there Thursday afternoon thru Sunday @noon.

John,

 I'm planning on it depending on work. The mine was down for two weeks due to a roof fall and it looks like some saturdays in the future. I just hope it don't run into hunting season before we get caught up on coal.

 We still got to get a stump shoot in sometime.

[Osagetree]

Guess I could afford the small game fee for non residents but, I'm unsure my vehicle has the stamina to make it. 4hours at 70mph in a 1999, 4cyl wrangler with 180,000 on it?
Then I'd have to go another hour on to Petersburg and beg Kris to cut me some tree's....... Shoot, I keep talking myself in and out of this trip.  

[Last of the Breed]

My brother and I are planning on attending this year

[Cherokee Scout]

Are you hunting small game or deer?

[Todweelz]

We'll be in those counties, hunting whitetails the first through the fifth, private land, pics we've seen of the terrain down there, is looking very promising, hope you guys have a good hunt.

[Billy]

Cherokee Scout, the answer is ...YES    

We hunt feathered and furry things that weekend and maybe a few gilled ones..if we happened to find a mythological, Hoosier porker...we'd hunt that too!!        

Osagetree, talk yourself IN to this hunt, gonna be some purty osage bows, good campfires, and plenty of ground to hunt.

Todweelz, Thanx! Hope your luck is as good or better than ours.

[Billy]

ttt....

[sputterman]

Sounds great, can probaly make that for sure and bring a couple trad buds.

[KentuckyTJ]

Dang it, wish this wasn't during hunting season. I'd like to come since its so close.

[Hackbow]

TJ - Ky's archery season is 4 mo long. Spare a pre-rut weekend and join us for another hunt. I'll just be getting back from chasin' elk in CO the week before (can you smell the backstrap on the grill - I'm sharing with the camp!) and turning around and heading to IN for this hunt. I won't miss it.

See you guys there.

I have had a slight change in vacation here.  I can't get Friday off so I will now be down from Friday evening until Tuesday evening.  Billy, can you change your time to include Monday?  I hate to miss a day/evening with you.

I got the arrows all squared away and spent some quality time stump-shooting this weekend.  Indiana's deer population is probably at an all-time high.  We need to kill some more deer.  Squirrels are going crazy right now and the nuts are dropping early.  Hope there are some left for the hunt.

[Hackbow]

John - the change works a little better for me anyway. I'll give you a call tomorrow on my way West. If I leave early enough, maybe we can grab some lunch.

[stevewills]

ya i might have to head up there with sputter

[John Scifres]

For those on the fence, remember, this is a pre-rut deal.  The October lull will be in place so bucks won't be doing a whole lot.  All your normal places will be real slow so you need to hunt some big woods for a change.  In the meantime, you'll meet some really nice trad guys and maybe gals and share a meal, a beverage, and a campfire.  I will tell you exactly where to hunt for your best chance at a big woods deer.  the area we hunt is featured prominenetly in a book or two and I have seen the deer that come out of there.

[twigflicker]

I've read those books John... He sure gets it done around there...

I don't know what that weekend brings, but hope to slip in at least for a howdy with you and Darren...

I'm still planning on coming if for nothing else just to share a campfire and hunt one morning.

[Stiks-n-Strings]

Getting closer Fellers. Got most of my camping gear packed up and looking forward to meeting some real good folks.
