Indiana Youth Hunt Regulations – Youth under age 18 on the date of hunt can participate. – Youth hunters can take either a buck or a doe; if a buck is taken, it is the only buck the youth hunter can take that year, except in an urban deer zone; a doe is in addition to all other antlerless deer that can be taken in the regular seasons. – Resident youth will need a hunting license (apprentice or regular), such as the resident youth comprehensive hunting & trapping license or a comprehensive lifetime hunting license. – Non-resident youth will need a non-resident youth deer hunting license—firearm, archery, muzzleloader, or bonus antlerless. – An adult that is at least 18 years of age must accompany the youth hunter during this special season, be licensed to hunt (unless hunting on his/her own farmland), stay in close proximity to the youth while in the field, and not possess a bow and arrow, crossbow, or firearm, and not accompany more than 2 youth at a time in the field. – Youth hunters must use legal equipment—archery, crossbow, shotgun, rifle or muzzleloader. – Youth must follow all other deer hunting regulations.
Club Rules
All hunters and mentors must wear a full body harness if they are hunting from a treestand. The youths will not be allowed to use a handgun to hunt with. Absolutely no loaded firearms in camp. That includes the magazines. Muzzleloaders are considered unloaded when the cap is removed. At least one article of clothing must be hunter orange for both hunter and mentor. |

In the club rules it states, no loaded firearms in the camp. Does that include Conceal Carry handguns also?

I'd prefer that adults not carry in camp. You do not need personal protection while in camp. If you are permitted to carry during the hunt, then you can but please keep it low profile. We want all the teams to avoid conflicts in the field, if you have one, we'll move you to another stand site and continue the hunt.
We will have a personal mentor for each child, and a super roaming the properties on the roads for anything that comes up un the field.

This is a great way to introduce youth to hunting and maybe some great life long friendships will come from it. Both for the kids and adults. My concern lies with the safety of my children, myself and the others around me. In today's society, there are not many safe places. Rural areas are ideal locations for meth cookers to manufacture, and in the past year, I have encountered 2 such labs. One encounter led to the arrest of the cooker last fall in Gibson County just south of Fransisco while I was deer hunting on private, posted property. Meth cookers are very unpredictable. I'm sure your camp is safe, but to say" You do not need personal protection while in camp", is a strong statement. I want to respect the rules of the hunting camp and that is why I asked for clarification. But from your last statement, " If you are permitted to carry during the hunt, then you can but please keep it low profile. We want all the teams to avoid conflicts in the field, if you have one, we'll move you to another stand site and continue the hunt" makes me feel, that you are not familiar with handguns and the proper use of them or you are just opposed to them. Carrying a sidearm is a huge responsibility and should not be taken lightly and I have been doing so for more than 20 yrs. I'm sure your just being cautious, because you have never met me and you should be. If it would help, maybe we could get together for a coffee or soda sometime. I think we would get along great. I would love for my son to take part in this event, but if the presence of a sidearm in camp or in the field is going to cause conflict amongst other hunters and yourself, then we will respectfully bow out. I hope you understand where I am coming from and I will respect your decision. If you would like to talk, feel free to give me a call. 305-3544 Thank You, James |
