Ok... haven't seen a buck this season. Driving home this morning and came off of the St. Joseph Valley Parkway (US 31/20 Bypass) at a County Road. This guy below was bedded down in the circular interchange, which offers quite a lot of cover. Saw two does in there a couple nights ago. Caught him out of the corner of my eye, pulled over and backed up and watched him a bit. HIGH tines and huge rack well beyond ears. Cell pic is not great but had a good long look at him through the binos.
Called the DNR's office about an hour ago and (still) awaiting a call back from our local CO. Lady at the District 1 office couldn't answer my questions. Maybe the questions are too stupid to deserve a response haha.
1.) are the interchanges along the bypass state property or considered "public" property?
2.) is it legal to take game in such an interchange? I asked specifically about using bow.
Appreciate your input and opinions.
