I am looking for private property within 20 minutes of Pendleton, IN to run my coonhounds. I know that most deer hunters are skeptical about hounds running in their woods during deer season. I have coon hunted since I was 7 and deer hunted since my early teens. I have never seen any ill effects of running dogs and disturbing deer or deer movement.
That being said I would most definately respect anyones decision if they were only to allow me to run my dogs outisde of deer season. I have included a link at the bottom of the thread that discusses a study that was conducted by University of South Carolina and Clemson on deer movement and raccoon hunting. I think you will find the results interesting.

Here is another interesting study on Crop Depredation by Wildlife in Indiana. This study was conducted by Purdue University.

Property and property owners would be treated with the utmost respect. Thanks and look forward to hearing from some of you!
