Hunting injuries most commonly involve elevated platforms and tree stands, so stay safe by following the guidelines below.<\/p>\n<p>Tree stand safety before the hunt:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Read, understand, and follow the tree stand manufacturer\u2019s instructions.<\/li>\n<li>Check tree stands and equipment for wear, fatigue, rust, and cracks or loose nuts\/bolts, paying particularly close attention to parts made of material other than metal.<\/li>\n<li>Practice at ground level with a responsible adult. If you need to sight in your equipment, find a shooting range near you.<\/li>\n<li>Learn how to properly wear your full-body safety harness.<\/li>\n<li>Make a hunt plan and share it with someone before your hunt.<\/li>\n<li>Wear your full-body safety harness.<\/li>\n<li>Use a tree stand safety rope.<\/li>\n<li>Make certain to attach your harness to the tree or tree stand safety rope before leaving the ground and check that it remains attached to the tree or tree stand safety rope until you return to the ground.<\/li>\n<li>Maintain three points of contact during ascent and descent.<\/li>\n<li>Wear boots with nonslip soles.<\/li>\n<li>Use a haul line to raise and lower firearms, bows, and other hunting gear.<\/li>\n<li>Make sure firearms are unloaded, action is open, and safety is on before attaching them to the haul line.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>General reminders:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Hunter Orange \u2013 know when to wear it and how much is needed on a ground blind\n<ul>\n<li>Hunter orange is required for all deer hunters during youth, firearms, and muzzleloader season. Hunter orange must be worn at all times during the hunt, including walking to and from the hunting location. Regardless of hunting equipment being used (archery, crossbow or firearm), if it is firearms season, you are required to wear hunter orange.<\/li>\n<li>A ground blind must have at least 144 square inches of hunter orange material that is visible from any direction during any season in which a hunter is already required to wear hunter orange.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n<li>Firearm Safety \u2013 Treat every firearm as if it is loaded, keep the muzzle pointed in a safe direction, keep your finger off the trigger until you are ready to shoot, and be sure of your target and what is beyond it.<\/li>\n<li>Print and complete a Landowner Permission Form if hunting on private land that isn\u2019t your own.<\/li>\n<li>Remember to complete and attach a deer transportation tag immediately upon taking a deer. The tag should be attached to the deer during transportation and any time the deer is unattended.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>Always bring emergency equipment with you on your hunt, such as a cellphone, flashlight, small first aid kit and extra water.<\/p>\n<p>Read more about the guidelines and property rules here: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.in.gov\/dnr\/fish-and-wildlife\/properties\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Fish &amp; Wildlife Properties<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Resources:<br \/>\n<\/strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.in.gov\/dnr\/fish-and-wildlife\/wildlife-resources\/wildlife-diseases-in-indiana\/chronic-wasting-disease-cwd\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Chronic Wasting Disease (CWD)<\/a>, Division of Fish and Wildlife, Indiana Department of Natural Resources (IDNR)<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.in.gov\/dnr\/fish-and-wildlife\/wildlife-resources\/animals\/white-tailed-deer\/deer-reduction-zones\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Deer Reductions Zones<\/a>, Division of Fish and Wildlife, IDNR<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/Tvlw1Kx9DBs\">Ask an Expert: Wildlife Food Plots<\/a>, video, Purdue Extension \u2013 Forestry and Natural Resources (FNR) YouTube Channel<br \/>\nHandling Harvested Game: Episode 1,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/bfdDz1fHTbA\">Field Dressing<\/a>, video, Purdue Extension \u2013 FNR YouTube Channel<br \/>\nHandling Harvested Game: Episode 2,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/gblKwccvz8k\">Hanging &amp; Skinning<\/a>, video, Purdue Extension \u2013 FNR YouTube Channel<br \/>\nHandling Harvested Game: Episode 3,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/2MKYl-TdUDs\">Deboning<\/a>, video, Purdue Extension \u2013 FNR YouTube Channel<br \/>\nHandling Harvested Game: Episode 4,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/QklejdToQWU\">Cutting, Grinding &amp; Packaging<\/a>, video, Purdue Extension \u2013 FNR YouTube Channel<br \/>\n<a href=\"https:\/\/www.purdue.edu\/fnr\/extension\/deer-harvest-data-collection\/\">Deer Harvest Data Collection<\/a>, Got Nature?
