It sounds like they would go to the outfitters that were actually registered and licensed as businesses prior to July of 22. In other words, the big name hunters and their businesses for the most part. It’s worded so that only a small few would get the tags which in return would be a major boost...

12 or 20?

Looks to me like you’d be feeding all the neighbor deer. All the big timber surrounds you and you wouldn’t own any of it. Actually looks like out of 1k+ acres, that’s the only crop ground.

Getting ahead of them there Skip, the air bow proposal is for gun season only, for now anyway. As for 17’s and turkey, that could be challenging if a person was committed to a head shot only. Shot can be hard on the teeth as it is.

Why not drill and tap? A scope for turkeys isn’t a bad thing. Go with a “red dot” and just leave it on there. Or pull it off and put the filler screws back in. Your planning to take it off with the saddle mount anyway. I’ve seen cantilever mounts that replace the rear sight. I know Henry has...

I’ve tried at least 5 or 6 different rounds with 0 issues. Ruger AR

What happened to the stipulation that the county had to have a minimum 100 tags left to allow the season?

Just got 2 complete bear creek rifles yesterday. Put 40 rounds through them fine tuning the scopes with no issues. I’d heard of cycling issues but these worked fine. I think they may have worked out most of the issues which I’m told were magazines and springs. Full disclosure: these were 450’s...

Doubtful the next round would have loaded. With the “powder throughout” comment, I’m guessing the bullet moved just enough to dislodge from the case. Especially if it was a tight chamber.

As long as the food is plentiful, it will hold quite a few. Are you eating McDonald’s or going across the street to the steakhouse for the same price. No question that a place “built” to attract deer is going to pull some from the fringes. Depending on pressure, they’d have little reason to...

I know of 2 deer that were taken that would probably still be walking if not for cell cams. Both 170+. Both harvested within a few hrs of walking past a cam. The guys weren’t even planning on hunting those days. They got pics before sun up and slipped in to their stands. “I got the pic at 4:30...

What area do you consider “south central”? That would help with suggestions. Maybe the county at least.

Guthrie Center, northern iowa? As for your question, anything is possible. Haven’t heard of anything yet. Watch TBI’s page, I’m sure they’ll have something there if it’s true.

Pay the inputs and only charge him for 15 acres. Win, win for both. These guys saying pay $3k and it’s fair didn’t catch that your only getting $3325 total. I wouldn’t think that letting someone farm my 15a for $325 was fair to me. Maybe sharecrop the whole thing as an option.

Can’t say I’ve heard of any bullet that will exit at point of entry. Or that it’s ever happened. The .556/.223 fmj at ranges used in these recent shootings will more often than not exit in a straight line due to velocity. If fmj was so devastating, we’d be using it in hunting situations. The...

I use a 4 gallon made by roundup. I’ve had it for 3 yrs now and it works great. Can’t recall exactly what I paid, $60 maybe.

Here is a quote fm a hearing in the House today: Assault weapons are made to kill... when they're hit with an assault weapon they cannot be identified. They are obliterated," Cohen said of children shot with assault weapons. "They are weapons of war and weapons of death and weapons of...

Will it tow down the road or do you need a trailer?

Needing some advice here. My Apple tree split in the winds this past weekend. Half is laying on the ground. Do I need to coat the exposed trunk after cutting the fallen part away or will it be ok? If it needs coated, what should I use? Thx

You can hunt it every year, the state has never said you couldn’t. If you want to hunt antlered deer you just have to play by the rules. If you didn’t draw for archery, hunt shotgun. Either way, you’re hunting your ground. The bottom line is that you knew the rules when you bought. They aren’t...
