Yikes. So basically impossible to hunt anything other than the city owned ground. I wonder if the city has to get permission from all the surrounding landowners? Doubtful. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

Why was it almost impossible to participate in the past? Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

I agree. Need to stay on the offensive when it comes to crossbows. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

All the public I hunt whether county or state is boundary marked with the same green DNR signs. I never knew there was anything different besides the ihap signs. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

He could have explained that better; on the public hunting atlas blue outlined land is DNR managed, green is county/other. From my understanding cams on green outlined land is legal, blue outlined land is illegal. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

So county conservation land is still ok? Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

No, it's crossbow hunting. Interestingly, Boone and Crockett has a section on long range shooting of animals and how it's not fair chase. "The Club finds that long-range shooting takes unfair advantage of the game animal, effectively eliminates the natural capacity of an animal to use its...

Every year there are stories of some guy getting a pic from his cell cam, immediately going out to his stand and killing that deer. This is not very common though and definitely not the norm; of all the guys I know, none have had this happen to them personally. What usually happens is you get a...

Replies from the DNR is what people are going off of right now for the most part I think. I haven't seen the official document. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

So, according to the statement from the DNR cell cams would be illegal on private land and public land. I'm not a fan of this at all. Why the rule change now? Were people complaining? If so, this is the first I'm hearing of it. Will this be enforced with about as much vigor as the tree...

I don't mind it, half the time someone already said what I would have said, so I just like it. [emoji38] Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

Unfortunately, yeah. Des Moines has a a fair amount of speeding and no turn on red caneras. A construction zone on I-80 just outside Des Moines had a sign that said speed limit enforced by aircraft. Bunch of BS imo. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

I've experimented quite a bit, expandables hybrids, fixed. Honestly I've had all different levels of blood trails; I think shot angle makes more of a difference on amount of blood more than anything. I've been shooting fixed lately for the simplicity and ability to resharpen the blades...

Hard no for me. I assume you'll find a similar sentiment from most the populous on here too. Seems innocent enough at first, but once something like that is approved then air bows are pitched and it's the same slippery slope tactic as straight wall rifles. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

I second the arctic shield boot covers. Throw them in pack, throw them on when you get to your stand and throw some hand warmers in them. Best solution I have found hands down. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

Be hard to top that season! Nice work to your nephew! Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

Nice work to the kiddo! Perseverance pays off, glad he could reconnect on a stud of a buck! Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

I don't think anybody is blaming the actual taxidermists for the price increase. I assumed their supply costs went up just like everything else did the last couple years. Not sure what their profit margin is, but it can't be that big. Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

Great work to dad and kiddo! Sent from my SM-G998U using Tapatalk

My guy is about $900 and that's the going rate for quality it seems. Mounts have now reached "gun money" status. It's harder and harder to justify to myself and the wife as the price goes up. Anymore I won't mount something unless it has super cool character or hits my my top three. Sent from...
