Deer season may be over, but the stories keep coming, like the one shared with me last week by a LaPorte County hunter.
While several Hoosiers lamented they didn’t see many bucks last fall, that wasn’t the case for Dave Jones.
He and his 78-year-old father, Gene, hunt an 88-acre parcel in southern LaPorte County. It’s kind of an island of habitat surrounded by farm fields. It generally attracts a few deer but not many quality bucks.
Until this year.
Gene, who is retired, hunted there throughout the bow season. Dave, an attorney, works a lot so his hunting time was limited to opening day of gun season.
“Dad saw some deer during bow season but nothing like what we encounter in one weekend,” explained Dave.

Doug Miles is concerned about the deer population around his home in the northwest corner of St. Joseph County, Ind.
Miles is an avid deer hunter and landowner. He talks to neighbors, who are farmers and deer hunters.
They’re concerned, too.
“None of us saw bucks and very few does this past season,” said Miles.
That’s not the norm on property that includes several thousand acres covering Miles’ place and adjoining neighbors’. And while a lot of the land is agriculture, the owners are deer hunters and manage the land for quality bucks by maintaining good deer habitat.
