Should be a split zone(s) and the limit should be 2 in the south and 1 in the north.

2, both with a bow, or 1 with a bow & 1 with a shotgun.

They are not thick in our area yet, so I vote base it upon populations in each county....but over by Winamac they are pretty thick I hear, so 2 easily.

I'd say leave as is until the population increases overall.

I heard 15 double shots Sat. Sounds like people are already getting their two birds.

Its fine how it is...If there becomes a pop. issue then talk about 2 but until then just be happy to to be one of the 22% of hunters who harvest one.

Birds galore, I see no decimation of the flock if they would allow 2 birds either sex. But it seems DNR's are more worried about controlling hunters than wildlife.

Other. 2 based on population as in the fall gun areas. Only one may be from public ground anywhere.

I say make it 10 with only one allowed a day. 78% of the hunters can't kill one. Success rate would probably drop down to <5% on a second bird. Of the 22% that do kill a bird, most do so on private ground. Make the limit 10 and let them destroy their own turkey populations. Heck, we got'em might as well kill'em.  Ask the people in Arkansas what a liberal limit does to the turkey population. I've been told that the limit could be changed in less than 5 years. |

I voted "Other." Having hunting 9 different Indiana counties spanning the extreme north to the extreme south, I would really like to see a limit per county much like we have with whitetail does in Indiana.  Because of the need to preserve reproductive capacity and to a account for poult and turkey mortality from predators, a limitation to "bearded turkeys" (preferentially Toms and jakes) should be preserved.  Just my 7 cents. ;D |

I voted to keep it how we have it, but I think there are areas that can have a two bird spring and I would welcome that for sure.
