Iowa would be a blimp on the map as a destination state for deer hunting if others states adopted even half of those regulations.

One more thought for the discussion. There are a handful of other similar interest groups out there that have lobbyist as well. One group that is sort of an accumulation of all the groups is the ICA. Iowa Conservation Alliance. I believe they have two lobbyist. I could be wrong on that though...

That is really cool. Now you have my wheels turning. That would be a great auction item at the spring banquet.

I ordered half dozen. American I believe. Trying to decide to plant them all in one place or divide them 3 and 3.

Thanks Randy.

Hit a few hot spots today including standing beans and found 0. Not happy

I can post some the items as we get closer. Right now things are fairly fluid as where items will be placed (live,silent,raffles, etc) Couple hog hunts, one being a helicopter, bear, pheasant, gator, African hunts, and couple more in the works. Muddy bull blind and few guns are some other...

I thought so. I actually think they have really cracked down on this in the last 10 years or so. It was very widely abused. Still is I'm sure.

Are you sure on this one? I didn't know there was an acre minimum. I was under the impression in order to receive a LO tag you had to have a source of income off the land you own. I was told that by a CO who was being questioned by a landowner of 5 acres with 0 income. Basically said didn't...

Can you imagine the anger from the farmer that pulls that crossbow bolt out of his 10grand combine tire because of some idiot trying to poach with one from the road.

Thanks for posting the call to action info.

Email sent to list above. Thanks for posting that list and making it easy. I encourage you to also use the voter voice option through the IBA. This provides concrete evidence of X number of people opposing bills vs just emails that may or may not be counted as a voice. Example: the 5 automatic...

I thought of this too but it seemed like it was going to cost a lot more. Maybe I'm wrong. Looking at about a 75 yard area maybe.

I have a ton of cedars of all sizes throughout the farm. I thought hard about renting a tree spade to do exactly that but I've heard survival rate is poor so I am going to plant these and then make a strip of Egyptian wheat every year for now.

Thanks. That’s actually a lot more than I anticipated.

I ordered about 40 cedars to plant as road screen. For screening purpose what would you recommend for a spacing distance? Also ordered a hand full of persimmon and wild plum.

Tickets are now on sale for the IBA spring banquet. Keith Beam of double bull is the keynote speaker. There will be some new hunts on the live auction, including a helicopter hog hunt, and plenty of silent auctions and raffles. There is more info listed on the IBA website...

I know others will give a lot better answer to your question. All I can offer is a buddy of mine had a night vision and switched to thermal rather quickly. He explained why but I don't remember enough to give you a viable answer.

Ya that's dumb. Never hunted rabbits with dogs but it's my understanding rabbits circle in close proximity so I'm but I'm guessing here that no rabbit race would ever last that far and those dogs were not rabbit hunting. for life of me would never understand turning a dozen dogs of any breed...
