First off - thank you to everyone that went to the meetings today and let your voice be heard! Does anyone else get frustrated that the IBA and ISC don't put it on their social media about specific bills that need stopped? It's not difficult to put a post that says, HF 22 and HF 65 need...

Thanks fellas!! I can't make it but I did send emails tonight and already got one response. Oh, and to all you "All Dems are the devil" people, Scholten is a democrat. Just because you don't agree with a lot, doesn't mean you can't have a conversation and you may even agree on a few things...

If you guys want real change or to keep things the same, IBA just sent out their first Week 1 Legislative Update. Time to start paying attention and contacting your legislators. Lots of good comments and suggestions have been made. I personally think we are on the down hill slide of deer...

My boys and I hit a small pond just down the street a few days ago and found one. Not much of a report but their first time ice fishing so it was memorable! Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk

Keep an eye on the honeysuckle. It can get out of hand FAST and take over everything. Overall, looks good!

You assumed correctly. Hillwalker has it right.

Heck of a buck. Congrats!!

Like you, I don't get out more than a couple times a year but I enjoy it. It seemed like the areas I hunted I saw a couple less birds than normal but that could easily be because it's public and a group could have gone through right before I got there. I have an 11 year old lab/pointer mix...

I agree with all of these points unfortunately. I don't think it matters that there are fewer hunters these days, access will always be an issue. If people want to kill big bucks they will do anything and everything to make that happen. And I don't care what others think or say, it's...

I'm a fan of the state doing what is best for it's residents. I couldn't imagine the amount of ground bought up in KS in the last year or two that displaced resident hunters. It happens everywhere but KS seemed to be a hot spot to buy recently.

My vote is EHD

One hell of a shot! But don't think deer should be shot that far.

Can't beat it!

Hope to see him in about 4-5 years... Sent from my Pixel 6a using Tapatalk

I mainly hunt two properties anymore and they are vastly different. 1 - Des Moines metro urban hunt where it seems quite low. The 5 hunters in this area have killed 10+ does total in each of the last two seasons. Much of the property is covered by honeysuckle and it's taking over everything. I...

Heck of a buck and way to make the second shot count! Congrats!

When I first started hunting this property in 2022 this buck was one of the first ones on camera and he seemed like he was possibly the most mature buck in there. The last two years I never laid eyes on him from the tree and he wasn’t showing up a lot in daylight on camera. This summer I figured...

I wish I had some private land as well but over the past few years I've had some success on public land - even in the central Iowa area. I'm not sure where you're from but Neal Smith or Chichaqua have a ton of ground. Otherwise I would think there'd be birds on public ground NW of the metro...

Great buck! Congrats!
