I'm pretty satisfied with having the absolute best whitetail archery season in the country. The gunners can have their 14 days. I need a break by the time 1st season opens anyhow. I'm usually as run down as the bucks are. Also, be careful what ya ask for. It might lead to something you don't...

I would have told him....."yep, but ya gotta call the Conservation Officer to get your extension.".....and then dialed the number for him.

I haven't got into one of these theads for a while and I've got the itch, so here's my 2 cents from over 20 years of bowhunting.:) I've shot a pile of different heads over the years, most of them have got the job done. Never shot a mechanical head for a few reasons, number one is I'm very...

Great deer! A buddy of mine had an old 9 pt on his land that didn't score great but he sure was a beast. He showed me trail cam pics of the deer from the last few years and I asked why he wouldn't shoot him. He wanted to hold out for 150 or better. I told him I'd shoot that old SOB any...

Don't know about SW Iowa elk, but they have/had some running around up in Allamakee that got loose from the game farm.

Yeah I'd like to see that to....just to see Farm Bureau leaders have convulsions after they heard about it.:way:

Were you actually tethered or did you ride it down with the linemans belt?

Haha, you sound like my old man. Stay well hydrated and get plenty of potassium like the guys above mentioned. That's pretty much the standard answer. Powerade is good for that.

Seriously though, find a spot that will keep a straight wind, find a pinch with sign in it and hold on.

River bottoms are over rated.;)

I think the Governor needed to do the right thing and let the DNR cut the doe tags back. I know what you mean though. There's a couple gun groups that hunt near me that filled their barns with does over the last years. Shot for bragging rights and a few pictures. Half of them were left...

Numbers are way down around here.....and it's pretty damn irritating considering Farm Bureau and Brandstad's alignment to deface the IDNR management plan. Knowing how our local shotgunners conduct themselves....they'll be about as many deer as pheasants around here next year.

Good stuff....

Why the drop?

VERY NICE! I know how frustrating elk can be.

Finally............ a thread can relate to in the last 3 months.

Around here all I see when the crops are out is a barren waste land, a sterile environment with no sustinance to get birds through any situation. There used to be so much life out in those fields. Until that changes, pheasants will be no longer. They all get paychecks from the government at some...

20 yards and under. It's not how far you can shoot that makes you a good hunter.....it's how close you can get to the animal.

Watching the DNR show (on youtube) they did, one brother was against more NR tags. He should branch off and make his own vids.....I just might buy one.:)

Congrats Ty
