Just wrote this to the author/sponsor of bill- Jane. Left a few personal details out but gets the important points across. I probably should have fine tuned it but heck- I just fired it off! Feel free to take any bits or ideas from below & make sure u write in to all those 5 legislators...

Dnr is not allowed to be for or against. EO 71 changed that by Brandstad. If DNR was Able to voice an Opinion with data on how this would impact Iowa’s hunting, access, management & future- they would clearly be opposed. It is just Jane & then who she lobbied to join her in support. So- it...

It’s ONE GUY!!!!!!!!! One guy from TX with land in Jane’s district. & again- he’s not even voting for her or here!!! He lives in the state with the most deer in the country!!!

I agree the rules have changed. There was 2 & it was really only 1 in reality. VERY FAIR POINT though!!! 1) the doe tag during archery is truly the only rule change. We all know why it changed though. Thousands of guys were showing up in Nov with rattling antlers, decoys, calls, etc. To...

It’s actually not paranoia. It’s the tactics they admit. I know the process. I know how this stuff works. This stuff is the tactic of almost any special interest group…. Get a CRACK & a CHANGE - that’s the opening to ask for more the next round. It’s politics 101.

this bill allows for anyone to file for iowa income taxes to get privileges…. It’s garbage. Folks who don’t live here, vote here or pay for living here 365 days a year - spending money & doing all their activities here. Next- all this is - a stepping stone. It’s purely NR strategy to get...

Bet u it’s frost/freeze damage

Jane Bloomingdale. Northern iowa. U know “deer country”! “It’s just a silly deer, why is this a big deal?” Has absolutely no clue about she is proposing or how it would cripple the state.

It’s one NR from Texas. Often times- these bills are from down south guys. Here’s why…. Their hunting culture is all: leases, hunt clubs, high fence paid hunts, out of state leases, etc. You BUY your hunting…. Not even saying right vs wrong … just saying - thats how many of them think &...

Emails at bottom & I copied & pasted email I just got. I want to add: The amount of $ ready to flow in to this state if this changes is staggering. I literally know double digit amount of guys ready to sell their farms in xyz state & spend 1, 5, 20 million dollars in iowa is mind boggling...

Heard many good things as well. Doing more research. I can say I’m almost a hard no on Feenstra. More we can learn on sand, Lahn & steen the better. We need to get this right (as possible in politics).

FYI.

I’ve never had an issue with storage of those things. I could be wrong but I think u r just fine using them.

Being a deer- I’d much rather lose that foot vs get a messed up hoof & infection. Which the second is a long painful death. Pretty wild. Wonder what the heck could do that?!? Tough dudes for sure & him holding antlers into march- good sign!!!

I like it!!! U do some TSI yet? I really like shrub plantings as part of a plan & that would be a year out …. U do getting darn good funding on that. I’m doing one this spring where we put up 8’ fence around it. Just poly fence. Pretty easy & cheap. Million other ways to do that though...

Here you go….

It’s interesting how when we truly flush out every topic- there’s not 2 people that agree on every single issue. (If need any proof- are you married?!? ;) ). Everyone is a hybrid of independent thinking, perspectives & issues. Some on here are against this but also big supporters of...

If there’s some “truth or agreement in the middle” it’s this…. Anyone that wants to trap has more opportunities now than anytime I’ve ever seen in my 30-some years outdoors. Trappers are welcome at about any farm I know. There’s more farms that want trappers than there is trappers. Almost...

it’s somehow been a year+ since I’ve been in. So much better, even with the lower rates!!!!! :) ;) Keep this in mind… say your CRP rate 4 years ago was “$225” (making this up) & now it’s $150 …. In these tougher to farm areas or fields…. The last year - it’s been a lot tougher cash renting...

I actually saw some irony here too!!! At a few places!!!! :) ;) I’m the one that wants some sort of limitations or changes on the use of thermals during deer season - yet I’m the one spending the most time & $ using these thermals blasting all these critters. other one…. The panic button...
