I have been watching many resident bucks in my area.. Several have been visible daily for a week. Tonight I saw a new 150" 10 point and filmed him on my old 8mm. NO VELVET AND NO BLOOD! Very White! I was surprised.. Looks to have been shed out over a week. All the others Im watching still in...

I see several bucks everyday and have not seen a single hard horn buck yet. Very close though...

I am a Iowa resident who lived in PA at one time. So have studied the issues. I believe that most of the comments here are somewhat true. It is a question of population I recall reading that Iowa has among the least amount of pressure in the US. PA is overrun with hunters, they are killing...

Dont buy it... for years I left my clothes outdoors and my woodstove smoke occasionally got on them.. It may not alarm them like human odors, but it will alert them THEN they will catch your scent once they are alert. Go as scent free as possible, since I began keeping my clothes in plastic...

SAME THING HERE! My card has already been charged for weeks now, but I have NOT been able use the site.. Can someone help! thanks

A big reason for global warming(IMO) is that the location of the thermometers has changed. I mean by that that the same thermometer/location 50 yrs ago was once a field with little urbanization, now that same exact spot is surrounded by concrete, asphalt, buildings, traffic, etc. Most locations...

I moved to Southern Iowa this summer..I came for my job not just to hunt, I do not have big bucks to spend on outfitters or leases, I knock on doors and make friends with locals I mostly am a serious bowhunter. The hard work and fact that most are just local normal folk trying to manage and hunt...

One afternoon I arrived to my only parking spot on a farm I hunt, I had driven 1hr to get there. The parking spot was about 40 feet off the road and narrow enough for only one car. There was a car there with with two youngsters making out and the windows were steamy, I had no other place to park...

In Maryland I hunted very high deer populations, hunting mostly every day in mid november, I was not surprised to finally see it happen.. But two bucks breed the same doe shocked me! The next year on the same day.. But now on a roadside in Iowa and such a good buck.. I am really what will I see...

I saw one today! My first daylight Bobcat of my life! I just moved to Iowa from PA. How common is it for bowhunters to see them and yotes while on stand?

I was able to get out couple hours this am. Saw 2 different 2.5 130" bucks trolling.. The does were barely moving, did not want to get the attention of bucks. Saw a nice shooter cross the road right in front of me, he was using a finger of woods to get to a larger block of timber.. I would...

THEBAD, That tops em! Wow I would never forget that one..

2 years ago I saw 2 bucks breed the same doe, one right under my stand (spitting distance). They fought over her for 3 hours. I had forgot my camera! Then 1 yr later on the same day 11/13 I had to climb down because of a wind shift and saw a young buck breed a doe 30 yards while im in a fence...

My stuff: Drove 1hr forgot bow (peak of the rut.) Dropped bow in late Jan hunt, stay in satnd had does all around. Climbing down with climber have 3 bucks (one shooter) walk by with me 1/2 way down! Have dropped everything, even the stand itself, leaving me to sliver down 20 feet, it was...

I use scent killer spray with no added odors like earth smell, they just alert the deer more.. USE THE PLAIN. Scent Lok, 2nd day after drying is best. RUBBER BOOTS!. I do not breath into a mask the humidity and moisture just make the mask smelly. I chew gum, new piece of double mint every 3...

Re: Fences. I agree with your frustrations. Very odd laws. Someone told me that the traddition is for the landowner to out the fence up to his south and east, So if the property line is to your north its his responsiblity. I too am not originally from Iowa but now live here. If everyone runs...
