Sound like you is going to be real happy their.....:D

Not at all....I'm strictly a trophy hunter. kidding again..!! Seriously though, thats what frustrates me more than anything. Just because I dont think NRLO's should get tag perference does in no way whatsoever mean that I do not fully support the rights of NR's to hunt Iowa. I actually love...

I thought you might argue that it should be the gopher. kidding.....!!!:D

HA!! Love it. One of my favorite movie moments for sure. Wont be decided here, that's for sure. Good luck to all and hunt safe. :) At least we are all passionate about hunting the greatest animal on earth. Pretty sure we can agree on that.

I laughed.

Did you make those calls? Or, are you afraid you might find the truth.

Because then the NR's that didn't already buy ground would start whining just like you. lol Nothing self serving about that idea! :D I love it.....well, just let me get my way and then I will quit whining and we can quit worrying about what anyone might want. Classic. You are...

My neighbor had a warden respond almost immediately to trespassers hunting out of season this year and he caught both guys and took guns and issued tickets. Poachers are caught and prosecuted every year. Not sure where you get your information. Call the DNR for specifics on cases. I am not...

Believe this.... If NRLO's are guaranteed tags, you will either own land to hunt on, or you will pay to hunt, or you will be stuck hunting public ground that is basically barren of wildlife. No different than Texas, Illinois, etc. Sorry, but that is just the way it would go. Most NRLO's...

I doubt it would either. But, you and I both know that is not what most of the fuss is about. The reason most bought ground was not to come here and shoot a doe. But, like I have already said, a couple of doe tags does not constitute a management plan. And, allowing doe tags turned into far...

Great info! Thanks so much for putting so much time and thought into your response. Very helpful and much appreciated. On another note, I too have disked up some areas and allowed them to go to weeds for quail. I have similar experience as you do with it. It works. Unfortunately, the...

You are missing the whole premise behind the debate. For every NRLO today, there are several more that would buy up ground in a heartbeat if they were guaranteed tags. I know of several and that is no exception. Any honest realtor that lives in good deer hunting areas will substantiate my claim...

Thanks for that! So....I guess your not ready to hug?:p

Lets hope that the biologists are allowed to do their job and that the legislators are allowed to follow the DNR recommendations.

When one side feels like they no longer have solid ground to stand on, they turn it personal and try to deflect from that facts. Common tactic that I have seen used over and over on this topic. They start to try to dismiss the other sides position by insinuating that its all a big lie, etc...

Nice that we can be civil on a less political topic! I feel like we should hug..:)

Thanks for the replies. I had read from others in years past that it was considered an invasive species by some and was prone to reseed itself and spread out of control. Sounds like that is not a big concern. I was going to use corn as a screen, but this sounds like a good alternative that...

Do you have any issues with the EW spreading out of control. Or, how do you manage it so that it does not? Thanks

Please answer the question instead of deflecting.

Please explain how me not wanting NRLO's to get tag preference is acting in my own interest. Keep in mind that I own two recreational farms. I will have good hunting for the rest of my life. And, if you get your way, my ground will increase in value.....A LOT. So, again, please explain...
