John,

If I am home (in town) that weekend, I will come down----

I have a trip planned at the end of that month, so I will need to tread lightly;)

I may be able to make it. I need to talk to my son and find out when he is coming into town to hunt.

Troy,
 I may be wrong but as I understand it the first tag is for any deer, not just a buck. The second tag is where the question comes in for me. If you haven't taken a buck with the first tag can the second tag be used for a buck? or are you just buckless at that point?

The way I understand the tags are that the first archery tag is an either sex tag for 150.00... you may then buy an extra archery tag, also for 150.00 which is antlerless only if the first tag was used for an antlered buck... which if I'm not mistaken is anything that has an antler of 3" or longer...

Joe, if you shoot a buck... you're done buck hunting in Indiana for the year... We went to the 1 buck rule several years ago... before that one could kill a buck with a bow and then also with a gun... that is no more...

It's the "bonus" antlerless tags that are for now for any weapon that are antlerless only and 150.00 for the first tag and then reduced afterward for non-residents...

It can be really confusing... always had out of towners come in the shop confused and checking in deer having the wrong license...

This looks like it's shaping up... now come on October... hard to even imagine cooler weather with the mid to upper 90's we've been having the last two or three weeks...

Hey all, like John posted, I will be there. How about Billy, Brent, Mike, Jordan, Merle, and others from past years? How about Dennis and Bona who keep saying they're gonna try? How about anyone else?

Just a heads up to you newbies thinking you'll impress the veterans with your cooking skills; forget it! Kris not only works magic with the deliciocity (yes, its a word) of his camp cooking, but I swear he pulls 4 lbs of meat from the cooler to cook and ends up with 8 lbs to eat. I, on the other hand, choose lunch meat exceedingly well.

Seriously, if you're on the fence about this just trust us when we tell you it'll be worth it.

I hope your schedule works out Joe, it'll be good to have you back. You too Jon, make sure you bring one of your heavy Elburg's for me to drool over. And P.J., will it help if I write a nice flowery letter to Leslie asking her if you can come out to play? Missed C-dale this year man, sorry. Also, it'll be great to meet you Troy. I spoke with you when you sold your arrow biz about my dad maybe taking it over as a retirement job.

The rest of you guys do your best to make it. There's lots of room to roam. Enough critters to hunt. And there's plenty of laughs to share.

Lastly, I want to take this chance to thank Scifres for not only getting this organized initially, but for keeping it going. It is simply a wonderful time shared with great folks.

See you all in October. Hopefully John and I will have elk meat to share. Wish us luck!

Darren, I'm scheduled to work that weekend! I may come depending on if I draw any of the "special hunts" as I am down to 4 vacation days. I need to put that Indiana lifetime license back to work, I only hunted IN twice last year.

I'll know by mid September. Besides every time I say I am going something comes up and I can't make it! I have been wanting to do this one since the first one!

Darren,

It really won't be too much of a problem unless I happen to be out of town a lot for work---I do not plan on it, but mother nature has a way of changing my plans--

If I do not come down to hunt for the weekend, I will come down to cook, eat and hang out on Saturday at least----

I am really feeling good this year--A full 2 years after my shoulder surgery, I have settled in on a bow weight, have a new longbow, I shoot it well, I have the fire to hunt like no other time in my life---

I am going to do my best to come down and play---

Oh, you can call Leslie, but don't think you will be the first guy to ask if I can come out and play;)

Hackbow!

This may well be the year I make it. My present employment is more accomidating. All I have to do is trade one day and I would have seven straight nights off! (If my schedule continues as it is now).

Of course the family has to be ok with it.

I'm really getting the itch to hunt something!

For one lucky first timer, I will personally escort you to  a stand site on a sweet inside corner where I know for sure a 150" (or so) deer lurks.  If you don't see a deer from this stand, I'll buy you dinner Saturday night  :)

As extra incentive, Brad Herndon, who wrote   Mapping Trophy Bucks  lives just a little ways from the campground and might even stop by.  His trophy room is full of big bucks killed on public land within a mile of where we'll be camping.

Oh! Oh! Do I count for the inside corner stand? Since I've not hunted with you guys and only visited one day ;-)

Didn't you guys have a fellow from Germany show up and hunt one year... and some fellows from VA?

Anyway, Darren I was planning on bringing that Elburg I picked up at Cloverdale... I won't be hunting with it as my joints pop and crack when drawing it, but it sure flings an arrow... I'd love to see you draw it to the 30" or so you do... Might burn the fletching off ;-)

Jonathan

Is everyone showing up Thursday night or coming in on Friday?

Is there any place to plug in a smoker? Don't think I will have time to babysit my charcoal one.
