Become an Archer’s Index volunteer

INDIANA – Hoosier bowhunters, you can volunteer for the Archer’s Index while you hunt. The quiet hours you spend in the field provide valuable wildlife observations that inform wildlife management decisions for the Department of Natural Resources.

Join the program to record wildlife you see while bowhunting from Oct. 1 through Nov. 15, the day before deer firearms season opens.

You can join the program by signing up on the DNR webpage. After you do, officials will mail you a packet with forms and participation instructions.
