The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers at Mark Twain Lake, enthusiastic volunteer hunters, Whitetails Unlimited, and the Local Lions Club are planning the Annual Deer Hunt for disabled individuals which will be held at Mark Twain Lake. The hunt will be held during the 2011 Missouri Rifle Deer season on Saturday, November 19 and Sunday, November 20 in the Indian Creek Recreation Area. The hunt will be restricted to 35 permanently disabled (non‑ambulatory, semi‑ambulatory) individuals having a valid 2011 Missouri firearms deer tag and a hunter safety certification card.
All hunters must comply with the 2011 Missouri Department of Conservation hunting regulations. To insure a safe hunting experience, certain procedures will be in effect throughout the two day hunt. Hunters will be required to hunt from and stay in the blinds while in the field. Weapons are restricted to 20-gauge or larger slug shotguns, muzzle loader or bow and arrow. Participants must have Hunter Education.
Applications must be received on or before September 16, 2011 to qualify for the hunt. A drawing to select participants will be held on September 20, 2011 at 8 a.m. at the Mark Twain Lake Project Office.
For further information or to obtain applications, please contact the Mark Twain Lake Project Office, 20642 Highway J, Monroe City, Missouri, 63456 or phone (573) 735‑4097.
