Southern Indiana Bowhunt - October 24-27

[John Scifres]

The 7th Annual Southern Indiana Bowhunt is scheduled for October 24-27th in Jackson Washington State Forest in Southern Indiana.  Please go here for all the information:    7th Annual Southern Indiana Bowhunt

This always proves to be a fun time and we have even killed a couple deer over the years.  It should be a fantastic time of the year to spend a weekend in the woods.  All are welcome.

Had a great time last yr. so this yr. is a must do.
My calender is marked and looking forward to another great gathering.  

[John Scifres]

Cool.  I had fun too.  Can't wait for some cooler weather.

[meathead]

Isn't that a little later than usual?  I could make that.

[John Scifres]

Yes it is.  This will be my main bowhunting getaway for the year so I wanted some good deer movement if possible.  The earlier dates seem to come with warm temps which are great for camping but not as great for hunting.  They should be firing up for the rut by then I hope.

[Billy]

Firing up..??...Darren will be,right?    :D    

Will be there Thursday ..maybe Wednesday evening...

If, ya haven't been, y'oughta..!!

[John Scifres]

I assume Darren will be there.  Haven't gotten fer sure confirmation.

Wow this looks pretty fun. Add in a little self bow action and I don't think it could be more appealing. I have never hunted whitetail deer so this would be a dream hunt to me. I'm not sure if I could pull this off yet but I will have to look into this some more if you don't mined a tag along.

Pretty sure im gonna be there, prob just friday night thru sunday but its only like 2 hrs from cincinnati.  Talked to my dad yesterday about it and hes in i think.  should be cooler than years past and we may even get a little pre rut action.

lookin forward to it!

I've thinking about this hunt and wondering if the wheels had started to roll. Checking the calendar now!

[John Scifres]

I have this awesome little sinewed osage bow that I am hoping to have done for the hunt.  It's made only with minimal handtools, and has a squirrel rawhide string.  I'm gonna shoot some stone tipped cane arrows out of it too.  It's as primitive as I have gotten.

[Billy]

Meril is looking forward to it, need Stiks,Burnt,Rob,Mike,Troy....etc...to chime in.

C'mon twitchstick; we have an open door, er uhm; woods policy. Everyone is Welcome ...as long as you wanna have fun !!

Bring an appetite for laughs, food, fun, and you have your ticket in hand!

[Rob W.]

Did someone say John was wearing a squirrel rawhide string bikini?

[John Scifres]

If that's what you want Robbie     Bring your pink arrows...K?

[Billy]

Hey...stop it!!...you guys ...

Put that picture back, John...

Thoughts and legs like that'll scare'm all away...

Headed to McCormick's Creek in the A.m. for a bit of tiny camper time...

Is it October , YET...??

[Steve Jr]

Sounds like fun I'm gonna check my work schedule and try to make it down.

[John Scifres]

Billy in 2011.  I can't remember if he had the squirrel loincloth on or not.  I'm pretty sure it's Rob's turn this year.  Isn't that right Rob?
I wore it in '09 I think.  Stiff chafing.

   

[John Scifres]

Last year, minus the loin cloth.  I think Kris (Stiks-n-Strings) is wearing it though.

 

Yea, he is.  Look at that smile.  He likes chafing.

 

[Billy]

THAT guy ain't right.... (u-pick, which     :D    )

Was on the White River this past Friday, saw two does, tons o'squirrels and other assorted critters; the Bald Eagle does not count as
'assorted'.

The weather here in Indiana yesterday made me feel like opening day should be tomorrow!
