Prophetstown State Park hunt

[Woody Williams]

Woodmaster and I were drawn for the November 16th and 17th hunt at Prophetstown State Park.

I do understand that this park has never been hunted before and the limit on the hunters is 50.

Anyone in that area or anyone that has been to the park like to give us a head's up on where to go scout and hang a couple stands?

If you don't feel comfortable about posting in the public forum just PM me.

TIA....

I also got drawn for Nov. 16 and 17. I grew up in West Lafayette and with this being the first hunt in there are the only reasons I decided to sign up. I plan to make a trip up there to check out my area. I was wandering how many hunters would be in the park, so 50 is a comfort. I have not done a reduction hunt with a gun, just a bow. This could be interesting. What zone did you get drawn for?

Drove through on HW 225 and did some spotting last night. Saw about 10 in the hay field off of HW 225 where the seem to be a lot.
