Lake Shelbyville Disabled Deer Hunting Blinds Available
•September 21, 2022•
The U.S. Army Corps of Engineers at Lake Shelbyville is offering additional deer hunting opportunities at Whitley Creek Recreation Area in Moultrie County for disabled deer hunters holding a state issued P2A card. Disabled hunters will be able to reserve two of 4 blinds in the closed Recreation Area during archery deer season. All four blinds were built by Boy Scouts to earn their Eagle Scout status. These 4 blinds allow disabled hunters that would like to archery hunt to have an easily accessible area in which to deer hunt. Hunting will be allowed by permit only throughout the archery season (to exclude dates the week prior to the youth shotgun season and 1st shotgun season). Reservations will be taken immediately and must be made 3 days in advance of the hunt. Each hunter will be allowed to reserve up to 2 days at a time, however, the hunter must have used their reservation before signing up for additional hunt dates.
For additional information or to make a reservation contact Park Ranger Grant Woods at (217) 774-3951 ext. 7034.
