Nice one! Congrats! I wouldn't be surprised if he went near 160. Really nice deer.

I've kinda had the same thought. If they had the money, there's nothing stopping a guy from having 2 cameras per acre on his 80 acre farm and literally watching the buck move through the property in real time. And the technology is only going to get better. Don't get me wrong, they are...

You 1000% need to shoot more does. 2 does is nothing on 180 acres. Listen to this video: Everything you're saying seems to support what Bill is saying in this video. The farmer letting everyone shoot anything they see kept the does in check. I curse the orange army when they kill young...

I've had two intended all day sits end early with a dead deer late morning.... 10:30-11:00ish. If that counts. Those two were Nov 10th and Nov 17th. Buck on the 10th I blind rattled and he came running in to 10 yards. It had been a couple hours since I'd seen a deer until then. The buck on...

I've watched MW for years and always enjoyed the show. THP and MW are the only guys I really watch somewhat regularly (gotta get a hunting fix somehow when you can't hunt yourself HA) MW guys were kinda the pioneers of the semi-live shows that we have now and it has been a valuable learning tool...

I've also had the issue of some of my older Moultries "snipping" the picture when you view on the computer. The easy fix is to 'select all', right click, select 'rotate right', then right click them again and select 'rotate left'. That will fix it and you can open and view them like normal...

Late to the conversation but I've really enjoyed this thread. Really fun topic to think about. The regulation rabbit holes related to what makes 200 inch deer producing areas was interesting discussion, as well as the cell cam topic. I would say for sure that there are many counties in Iowa...

I wouldn't even think twice. Shoot. Don't need those things in Iowa. Pretty. Majestic. Whatever... we don't need them here. If you love deer, you shoot.

Funny how everyone's experiences with different brands are. I actually vowed to never by anything OTHER THAN a Mountrie 4 or 5 years ago. I'm currently running around 15 Moultries. The M880 (I think that's the model) was my favorite... absolutely zero complaints with them and wish I had 20...

No good news. Followed blood for 4 hours Tuesday afternoon. Very slow going with mostly just drops to follow. No bright blood that I'm used to seeing from lung hits. No bubbles in anything. Never found an arrow, so maybe it was still in him but there's enough vegetation that we could've...

And is 6 hours long enough to wait? 8 hours? Lots of rain rolling in tonight... not that there's a blood trail but it certainly won't help.

Yes, I THINK it was buried up to the fletching so there's definitely two holes in him. Your question has been my question all morning... did I get it under the spine. And I can't confidently say either way. Logic tells me that if I hit above the spine without actually hitting spine, the arrow...

Have one for you guys.... I'm sick. My #1 came in at first light this morning. Legal light literally came on the clock while he was standing in bow range. Everything was going to go perfectly until some does started blowing and wouldn't stop. He got super nervous and started to turn to walk...

I've been going to Marlin Hoch and have been happy. He does good work and the turnaround is unmatched. Hoch Taxidermy just north of Melcher-Dallas.

Bumping this thread again. Big day today, fellas. If you haven't already, be sure to get to your polling place and VOTE! If you aren't registered, in Iowa you can still register on election day. Do not listen to any exit polling BS! If you crawl out of the treestand tonight and plan to vote...

Weather forecast from a deer hunting perspective looks like @$$ next week. At least I won't be missing a frosty, 25 degree, high pressure, perfect wind morning in the stand when I'm in the voting line to vote for DONALD J. TRUMP!!! DOWN BALLOT REPUBLICAN COMING RIGHT UP!

Comes down to just a few things that have already been touched on: - No gun season in November and well structured seasons as a whole but mostly having to do with no guns during the breeding season. - Limited Non-Resident hunting (sorry, not sorry) Those are the things you can control; similar...

I don't even trust them enough to do that. Too easy for corrupt people to say "Oopsies, gee we lost the early voting ballots. Bummer. Oh well!" I suppose fraud will find a way regardless but I guess I don't want to give anyone time to gameplan.

Yes, I meant more along the lines of probably having to stand in line at the polls and you can read all you want with the device in your pocket right up until you get your ballot. However, honestly you should have your ballot memorized front and back before you even get to the polls and know...

That's understandable but it's not too hard to find your ballot online and research ahead of time. And with a smart phone it's easy to look stuff up away from home too. In addition, I'm definitely not going to mail my ballot when the Postal Workers Union has endorsed Biden and the stories of...
