    Chariton Unicorn Buck

    My buddy's dad took a cool ~140" unicorn buck near Chariton Thursday morning. Forehead antler is about 6". Hanging in Moravia now. Very cool looking. Great for his son too who has been putting in lots of work setting ladder stands close to parking areas where the dad could access. Elderly...

    When there's lead in the air.................

    I am pretty disgusted right about now. After drawing my tags and strategizing my work schedule all summer, I acheived my FY2012 quota 2 weeks early. This was so I could begin work on my FY2013 stuff for when I burn my 3 weeks hunting vacation. When the managers at my office saw the numbers...

    Most Overrated Hunting Personality

    I don't have Outdoors channel so don't get a big sample size to judge, but I'd go with Greg Miller - Wisconsin as underrated. Still enjoy Stan Potts's enthusiasm. I met a few of these guys and got good impressions of about all. Probably because of the nature of the sport.

    Rain

    O joy. Nice hit on Albia area this morning. Anyone know if any of the corn fields in Appanoose completely died out? We are getting the storm remnants in the Chicago burbs right now. The corn here has held on, but stunted. Not as bad as 1988.

    Rain

    OMG I know it will be sucked up like a sponge, but I actually saw green on the radar in Appanoose County! I think it was a shock for the Weather.com computer though. The map-in-motion feature was broken.

    Iowa NR draw results

    I used to hunt Kansas sometimes. But then then some unscrupulus landowning politicians morphed their real NR lottery into a fake "feel good" one like we have here in Illinois. Sell as many $550 permits as possible. So I quit applying years ago, and still have 4 worthless preference points NOT...

    Iowa NR draw results

    gunrunr, So you are in 17 point hell too, huh? I've seen many jokes about our pool. Have been applying in many states for all that time and drawn many slammer elk hunts. Even after all those I have over 260 points for all hunts combined, and my 17 CO elk points are by far the most worthless...

    Iowa NR draw results

    I drew my archery zone 5 tag. With 4 points I should have, but after reading all the stories about some not drawing with 3, still had me checking results!

    Smart Phone! Who has one?

    I have a 3GS but very few places I hunt pick up much of a signal. Had virtually no coverage where I'll be hunting in Appanoose County this year while scouting. Maybe because I have AT&T? Once in a while it picked up an incoming text message. That was about it til I got back to town.

    Petition on Accountability of Proceeds from Sale a Public Resource

    These are YOUR tags that are being stolen for personal gain. This should piss off anyone, but for you guys that hunt out west this is especially outrageous. These clowns are stealing 2.5 million $ every year. They need to go to jail, do not pass go, do not collect $200.

    When there's lead in the air.................

    GWs 19, 11 & 13. I've already gotten letters from 3 outfitters, including DVD's. 90% of the hunting took place in clear cuts. They all used serious ATV's to get moose out. No doubt, getting meat out will dictate where I can hunt. If the guides concentrate on the areas where ATV's are...

    When there's lead in the air.................

    It's in the 2nd furthest north unit, right up against the Maine state line. Roughly 10 miles north and south of Berlin. I've been told the north 4 units are the best, and all pretty much equal in quality. I have a lot of time for research, plus will have 5 full days to scout. No, guides...

    When there's lead in the air.................

    I had a moose tag last year in Wyoming and finally got my cow call down to where I thought I was pretty good. Brought in my bull. But when this guy let rip I got to wondering if that is supposed to be some cow in heat or if he was doing that on purpose??? Seems like the calling matched the...

    When there's lead in the air.................

    So I'm surfing YouTube for some New Hampshire zone 2C moose hunts when I come across this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3D6bWBOPgRE Now there's some fine guide service for you. These guys go the extra mile, even if it means driving their truck down the forest road that extra 1/4 mile...

    Hunting Tags Drawn

    This was my 15th year applying. They started a bonus point system 9 years ago. I had 8 points. I won't bother applying there anymore after this year. Not interested in getting back into the system starting with zero points now. That would be like 1,000 to one odds. Just a bad investment. I...

    Please pray......

    I hunt public exclusively and am amazed at the number of expensive trail cams I see out there. Last one I had was one on the old 35 mm's which got stolen and never bought another one.
