Yes, if you’re an IBA member, you should have received an email.

Doesn’t matter if they have an R or a D beside their name…if they’ve been in politics longer than 2 terms, I have zero use for them look around…it ain’t exactly like you can swing a dead cat and hit a dumbocrat worth a nickel.

Here is the letter I wrote to my Senator. Please write your senator too! I’m so tired of pin-headed politicians and their constant, insatiable desire for more more more tax dollars so they can continue to squander and mis-use it! Generally speaking, if you’re a politician, you’re a nitwit. Feel...

Jake, unfortunately I missed the banquet. What is the min starting bid?

Priceless!

Love to hear that! The good stuff. Often it’s our kids & grandkids that give us the paradigm shift or perspective we need!

Excellent perspective. I tend very much to be a “bottom line” guy. Bottom line here is. I either need to do exactly as you are doing and learn to “let go” a little. Or, I need to sell the farm and move on. Might improve my situation, might not…no guarantees that after a move the neighborhood is...

There is. As long as you have electricity nearby. I have one of these in my yard. The deer & other critters love it. 16 gallons. TSC.

Yes. Will work. That said, the deer absolutely hammer my tanks. There were times this summer/fall where I was adding another 100 or more gallons to my 300 gal tanks every 10 days.

I’ve spoken in-person with my county CO as well as law enforcement in Des Moines at DNR. It’s perfectly ok, not baiting.

This is “The Basic 8”. He was another old, grouchy, known bully on the farm. I passed him at 20 yards on the morning of 11/4 and was rewarded an hour-ish later with the buck I posted previously. That said, I nearly picked up my bow and let this guy have it, which I would have been happy & proud...

Great thread! I suffer from the exact same condition. Hands, feet. For those of you that use the Arctic Shield boot covers…I bought a pair many years ago. They were so loud on the platform of my tree stand they lasted about 2 minutes and went in the trash. Have they improved that? Are the...

I’ve got tanks all over my farm. A variety of 110 gal. And some 300 gal. Again, I also have multiple natural water sources, creeks, ponds, etc. But in my experience (been putting water tanks out for 10 yrs or so) they become very habituated and dependent on the tanks. It’s often the very first...

I’ve been filling mine with SIRWA water for 3 years. They drink it just fine…in fact they hammer them…even with several natural water sources available. Several deer we know very well have used them from the start and continue to, so no health issues for the deer that are obvious.

Great stuff!! Congrats!

Congrats to Alex! Man, bowhunting is a promise of but one thing; highs & lows. Enjoy those highs when they come!

Thanks for all the likes & nice comments. I agree, he’s a stud 8! I just happened to be in the right place at the right time. Hopefully taking out a few of these old-timers creates room for some youngsters with great potential.

Thank you!

Donating fully set up 2023 Hoyt carbon RX7 with bow case to the cause. I need to get this into the hands of the right person at the IBA so they can sort out the best way to maximize…Raffle? Auction? Other? If you’re the right person, or know the right person, please message me.

We spent our 1st night back in Iowa on New Year’s Eve, 2020. After nearly 27 years of living in other states, what a dream come true to return home. We purchased a farm in southern Iowa and instantly got to work deploying cameras, posting signs, putting in food, etc. While my wife punched 2 tags...
