    One buck per season and doe limits are on a county by county basis. There are also urban deer zones that have bag limits separate from the state season.

    What part of Indiana are you considering? The hunting is good throughout the state but the northern and southern halves are the best.

    Waterfowl isn't the best, but isn't the worst. Terre Haute is close to the Wabash River and that is a decent flyway.

    Terre Haute is under an hour from Linton. Goose Pond can be a great waterfowl hunt.
    You're also within an hour of Sullivan and Greene Counties. Both are IMO 2 of the best sportsman counties anywhere. If you like to hunt, fish and camp, you will have plenty of all in this area.

    We learned in school that two halves make a whole correct. So by going off your post you are saying there is no bad spot in Indiana. :)

    But pastorjim is correct the northern third and the southern third of the state are the better hunting areas.

    You are correct sir. I thought when I typed that, that I should use the word; "third" but I didn't. I also thought that using the word "third" would leave out the western part of the middle which is very good hunting. Really I should have said everywhere EXCEPT the area around Marion and Hamilton counties is good.

    Don't listen to this. The hunting in Greene County is pretty awful. There are no deer there.
