    Another Giant, this one in Lewis

    I know the public land well. Ive taken care of it for 3 years with the conservation board during the summer. Its good ground. The cemetary is next to Hoffmeisters ground which I know of only 1 person having permission, and the people who supposedly shot it dont. The truth will surface soon...

    Action is hot in western ia

    I have been hunting about 10 miles from atlantic by Crones and Carlsons ground and havent seen squat either man. Did kick a 150 b&c buck off of highway 71 when I was walking through the field entrance. He was with 2 does. So its got to be close or we some how missed the action.

    Buddy shoots big one

    As far as I know he was sitting in the stand and this guy was rutting all over the place with several other deer, which sucks b/c the area has been slow and Im back in college. Thats all I know lol He must have hit far back or something to have a hole that far back.

    Buddy shoots big one

    This guy and I both hunt the same ground and take turns hunting it. He has permission on some ground 1 mile south of my stand, in which alot of deer move through. He texted me Wednesday morning that he shot a big one south of my stand. Just thought I would share some pics. Congrats to him!!

    Whats the action like in western iowa?

    Hunt around Griswold, Lewis, Atlantic and by elliot. Slow is an understatment. Definately the slowest movement I have seen in a long time.

    Bleep!!! I forgot my........
