Plenty of old dudes complaining about how hard they worked for what they have that are pissed about a guy that owns a few less acres than they have even tho they paid 5X the price only a few years later. I guess the younger generation just isn’t quite up to the standards of the older ones that...

I’ve done a bunch of what you have mentioned!!! Very happy to see the response of ISC even if it is after the fact!!! Hopefully in the future they ask for our input before using our money against us!! I care about ISC and want them to continue to grow and attract new members and get even...

There was definitely a time in this country when the older generations ate the sh%t sandwich and did the hard things to improve the lives of future generations. I feel this bill does the complete opposite. The older generation once again is sitting there and is telling the younger generation...

My MAIN issue is with the older generation of landowners telling the younger generation that they are not up to their STATUS yet and haven’t worked HARD enough to gain the same benefits they have thoroughly enjoyed over the last 30+ years!! It is complete BS!!!!! The heck with that BS!! Half...

I know you are not old so i’ll put this in perspective… BOOMER sits on his high horse and says somebody that pays 400 grand for 39 acres doesn’t deserve a LOT tag… meanwhile he paid 65,000 20 years ago for 80 acres and tells us tough sh*t…. Does that help??? This is a main issue of mine with...

Not a comment on your whole post just an addition!! All of us younger guys would love to buy the 80,160, 500 plus acres some of the older guys did back in the day. The money is ABSOLUTELY not equivalent!!! I always remembered a 40 by me that was 50/50 timber/crop that went for 42,000 in...

Sorry, had a few bigger issues than deer hunting come up. In general I like ISC and do totally believe they are working for the vast majority of us MOST of the time. BUT me and SEVERAL others that have spoken with certain leaders of the group all came up with the same conclusions. Good group-...

Iowa Sportsman’s Club

I’m always skeptical of groups asking for money/support. I’ll freely admit I’ve paid for the membership for this because I believed in the cause. I was skeptical from the beginning but I’d pay a lot to keep Iowa great. I’m glad I only paid the bare minimum for a membership and did not donate...

We have absolutely no clue how many non residents could be hunting here if this bill passes. That alone is a good enough reason to not support it

Yep! Sorry. I understand what you are talking about now. Agree. Guys waiting longer should have greater preference. Was not thinking of HF388

You are a little off on how the draw system works. It’s just a 65/gun 35 bow spit out of total tags for each zone. Most points in both bow and gun pool are drawn first. Nevermind…. I get it now

How many more hunts could a large landowning outfitter sell if his neighbors that owned less than 40 acres had a little less opportunity than before??? Just pointing out another flaw

No kidding!!! Rip tags away from res!!! Make it easier to sell our state out!!!! Every buck has a price tag on it. Lets make it easier for them. Totally agree with the well intentioned bill but history says we could get screwed somehow.

I originally kind of agreed with the whole thing about how a large landowner could/should have the 500 + tags with current regs and all that depending on how it was divided and stuff but looking back on it that argument falls apart pretty quick too. There is absolutely nothing that limits how...

I understand the bad part of urban sprawl but totally disagree with you. Kids can apply like every other non resident or get an antlerless tag. Believe me this bill would help me out a lot!! Lots of non resident family. I believe Iowa is one of the last great states for 3 simple reasons...

I think you might have read my original post wrong…. I am 100%% against any increase in non-resident access. I was saying a non landowning RESIDENT has ways to contribute WAY more to conservation than a non resident landowner. I personally contribute a bunch to several conservation groups and...

They can!! Haha. Just have to register them as eligible family member. If my daughter bow hunted she would be eligible for 4 anysex tags!! Dumb! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I sure don’t disagree! My only issue is this without a doubt benefits me and others that meet the requirements much more clearly than it helps those that don’t. It really does not matter in many peoples minds that it might drive overall quality up. They think they will never see the difference...
