Just grabbed my Sept 92 NAW magazine. Beginning on page 1 it's nothing but ads. Pgs 1-6 have Weatherby rifles, Browning rifles and slug guns, scrapedrippers and taxidermy lessons, browning clothing, majestic big buck artwork, elevated boxblinds and feeders, etc etc. Thumbing thru the pages...

Sorta off topic but what makes these high end blinds better than say a $150 Ameristep bone collector? I bought one of the original double bulls and it lasted about as long as the cheap ones, about 2 years. It was so long ago I just can't really remember what was so "good" about it. Probably...

I agree the studies have shown the 450 kicks like a 20 gauge. I bought the cva cascade 450 but haven't shot it yet.

Corruption! Great bucks everyone.

My dad and I stopped hunting out of trees. Just saw too many accidents and had a few close calls ourselves. Now my kids are just starting to enter hunting ages. My rule is no treestands, feet on the ground. That leaves plenty of other options. We can hunt in homemade box blinds, lowkey rag...

They actually named their book that? I figured that was a meme. Lol. Freakin doofus

I think she has her seasons off...

My son killed a doe with his 350 Legend last weekend. I kept whispering to wait for her to turn broadside, but he apparently got nervous and shot while she was still quartering towards. Very lethal shot, in the shoulder and angled backward. Entry and exit holes were both pencil sized. Found...

Anyone have a killer summer sausage recipe you like? I've never made any but want to give it a go.

Lol, so more fake news. I wonder when the actual for real story will be told.

Mine were not tubed. If you have a big herd I'd probably tube them.

I have a few quarter acre sized american plum thickets. Here are a few pics of what they looked like at age 4. Now, a few years later, they've filled in even a lot more. I was trying to stay on row from previously planted trees, so these are 12' between rows and about 8-9' between shrubs...

My 10 year old likes clicking on youtube hunting videos. Guy killed a big giant buck and proudly spoke of how the property was covered in cell cams and he even had 3 on 1 tree pointing all different directions. Said he knew every move that buck was making. Doesn't sound very sporting to me...

A class A+ 40 ac piece is coming up for auction several miles from us. I just saw the listing, including its 42 pg wind lease with a company trying to get permitted. That may attract buyers but in our case we will probably keep our hand down because of it. Can't stand the wind farms. Farms...

I read up on him a little, out of boredom. Saw a short video detailing how a hunter shot him with a high powered rifle when he was a younger man. Sounded pretty bad. Also learned he's a good golfer and I think he qualified for the amateur senior US Open, or nearly did, something along those...

Exactly. Long range is for wide open spaces and big land, the west. Keep the midwest short range. I wasn't happy with IL going this route because we already have too liberal of seasons (just like you IA guys are having to deal with), but the inability to buy good shotgun slugs looks has me...

All straight walls in IL must be a single shot or made to be a single shot. No prob there IMO. Safety first.

I'm way out of the loop but last I knew Redneck was still top.

Read that 31% of Iowa's land is owned by women over 65.

I believe the stat about 4 out 5 acres are owned debt free. I'm just saying, what percent of Iowa sells in a year, like 1%? And I'm making an uneducated guess that 9 out of 10 farmland sales to farmers in the past few years (don't count the 1031 and investors) involved a banker. I think it's...
