I agree w/ 180, looks like velvet damage to me on that first one

5%. I'm hunting good ground, but small parcels, lots of neighbors.... there are only so many deer that even make 160. I'll shoot any 4.5 (subjective, but that's what I deem mature-wish I could say 5.5, but not realistic for me) that presents an opportunity, score is not the determining factor...

couldn't have been late muzzy, illegal, but legal for shotgun, loophole used by many NRs

Can't check by last name anymore. I am sure someone got their panties in a bunch because their "privacy was being violated". Need ssn and birth date or IA DNR # to check results now. It was always interesting to see the celebs that did not draw but somehow managed to land a governor's tag for...

I see pheasant only, I also have the same issue with pictures, see some, but not others- not sure what the deal is

That might be your opinion, but there are alot of NRs in my area that would say "no problem" and cut the check , as crazy as it is to think. There are truly people with more money than sense and they would pay it

I think you are exactly right, if non-resident fishing is inhibiting Minnesotans from enjoying the resource, the laws should indeed be lobbied to be changed by the tax payers of your state. In Wisconsin, they would throw a fit if anyting hindered non-residents from fishing just based on the...

Ummmm, no. I was responding to the specific scenario you presented. If you are not a total moron, and I assume you are not, you would conclude that I was responding to the comparison you inquired about. After all, both are so completely different, that one would be a total moron to think that...

Seriously? I assume you know you're comparing apples to oranges with fishing vs whitetail. Try to reach as far as you want, but it is not the same thing. If you are allowed to catch largemouth bass every year out of your farm pond would you be happy? Since you liken the two in regard to...

I support higher penalties for shed/mushroom/arrowhead/whatever...if they are coming on your ground to financially benefit themselves or harvest game, but how do we differentiate between that and people that honestly get turned around and make an honest mistake? I understand the hacksaw/pile of...

this was the first year I ever received it, filled out and back on time for me- trying to communicate how few deer I saw, wish I had been asked the last few years, big drop off from last hunting season to this one.

JNR - If you have any insight, are they no longer sending out emails, should we be checking the link you provided for updates?

Hardwood - you seem pretty level headed in your responses relative to some other NRLO, I can appreciate your desire for toughter trespassing laws and admire the fact that you would consider joining the IBA if that was an objective they decided to back, if I were a NRLO, it would tick me off to...

I have seen them on IW.com, but have not been receiving any other communications like I used to.
