If you need an Indiana license for the weekend, you better buy it now.
The portion of the Indiana DNR website (www.state.in.us/dnr) through which licenses are purchased will be down for emergency repair from 2 a.m. (EST) Saturday to 11:59 p.m. (EST) Sunday, Nov. 10-11. During this time, license purchases will not be available online or at any license retailer.
Deer hunters can also save themselves time today and avoid the last-minute rush by purchasing their firearms season license. The deer firearms season starts Nov. 17.
The CheckIN Game system also is unavailable this weekend. In order to check game, hunters will need to visit a check station.

You really dont have to have a lot of gray in your hair to remember when deer hunting was largely a northern Michigan endeavor. There was a long tradition of going to deer camp somewhere north of Clare, and reports of traffic jams on northbound I-75 a couple of days prior to Nov. 15 were commonplace.
That trend changed through the 1990s, and somewhere around the turn of the century, the pattern reversed itself. More hunters spent more time and killed more deer in the southern third of the state than in the northern Lower and Upper peninsulas.
