Our archery starts October 1, and an Archery tag costs $24. Gun Season starts the second weekend in November and goes for 16 days, $24 for a Buck gun tag. Muzzleloading starts the weekend after gun ends and goes for 16 days, $24 for an ML tag for a buck.
Doe tags (Bonus Antlerless" are good in any season and are (were) $24 for the first tag, $15 for any more, no limit on does EXCEPT no more than allowed by county, which range from none to 8.
We are allowed only one buck, any method, per year, but as many doe as we want as long as no more per allowed in each county.
It used to get pricey to hunt archery and not get your buck, then buy the gun tag and not get your buck, and have to buy the ML tag to try for a buck with the muzzlestuffer.
I used to try like heck to get a buck during gun with my shotgun, then my doe tag would get me through ML if I didn't get one in gun.
But this year they changed it, a lot!
If you bought the "Bundle" for $65, you could hunt any season for your buck, and kill two doe (any season.) Extra doe tags are $15.
Plus they added 5 days starting Dec 26th for antlerless gun to fill any remaining doe tags, in any county that allowed 4 or more doe, which mine did.
Indiana has GREAT hunting and BIG bucks, and LOTS of fat grain fed deer, but this year for some reason not near enough to my "Guaranteed"
stand where I ALWAYS
score...
