2007 Deer Reduction Hunts-
-------------------------
Mail-in application due Aug. 17
Online application deadline, Aug. 31
The Indiana Department of Natural Resources will hold controlled deer herd reduction hunts at 18 state parks and one nature preserve.
Deer herd reductions are sometimes required at state parks and nature preserves to maintain a deer herd size that is compatible with the ecosystem of each state park.
Hunters can apply for the deer reduction hunts by completing the 2007 state park deer reduction application in the 2007-08 Indiana Hunting and Trapping Guide, or they may apply online after July 1 at www.IndianaOutdoor.IN.gov.
Mail-in applications should also be available at the park properties after July 1. The mail-in application deadline is Aug. 17. Reductions will take place Nov. 26-27 and Dec. 10-11. Hunters will be selected using a random drawing. Deer taken in these hunts are in addition to all other deer bag limits. You may bring up to two buddies for this hunt. You must enter buddy information on the application.
To be eligible for this hunt, you must be an Indiana resident, 18 years of age by Nov. 26, 2007, and possess an Indiana license to take deer.
Each person may apply only once for each state park deer reduction event. Parks where firearms are used will draw first from the pool of hunters who have a valid Hunter Education Certificate. Parks designated for archery require an International Bowhunter or Hunter Education Certificate to apply.
If you claim the hunter education preference and are drawn, you will be required to present your hunter education card at the property
