Skip, last year we shot 33 on opening day and probably another 15 throughout the season, I know of one other group that has permission, so I don’t know how many they shoot. I looked it up, this is a 160 acre farm that is all CRP. Good CRP too, not just straight switchgrass.

8 of us hit one of my pheasant spots yesterday morning. Had a limit by 11:30. Now I just need to figure out how to deer hunt it as we saw 3 good bucks.

I’ve had good luck and bad responses to a doe decoy. Seems like there is no middle ground.

Probably because they’re in my freezer since I had to clean them!!!!

To a moderate no party affiliation voter like me, the religious right almost as extreme as the extreme left.

There’s a guy from near Boone. He’s put in a ton of CRP and a few restored wetlands….its a gorgeous property! I stopped a few years ago and asked for permission to hunt. I was granted permission….for $50 a gun per day. Something about that didn’t sit right with me, I never went back.

Categories 5 and 7A were not a fun read to prep for.

If you want I can pin some spots where we had some luck.

We didn’t this trip, but we’ve done well there before

Badass!!! One Iowa critter I’ve never trapped!

Just got back from 5 days in Webster Sd. The fishing was good…4 of us limited out everyday but one on walleyes. There’s so many lakes in the area, it’s easier than it should be to find a bite. Waubay, Bitter, Lynn, Middle Lynn, Optiz, Pickerel, Cattail/kettle, and stink have all been good to...

I spray at ISU, turf and landscape beds. If I did this, I’d be in deep shit!!!! No excuse for stupidity!

He doesn’t bake them, just eats them….especially the cosmic ones.

Also, that was such a fun hunt!!!! I won’t say I ruined it with my shooting. It just made the memory funnier for Curtis and I. It’s too bad the super fat turkey we saw that morning never got close enough, I may have succeeded in killing it with a heart attack. That big boy has got to have some...

Leave me and my target panic out of your stories!!!! To quote the coach from Letterkenny….”Really embarrassing!!!” Pretty accurate description of my shooting when it’s a real animal

We use the Stihl SG 20 at work. Pretty bulletproof and easy to work on.

Also, I don’t spend more than 5 minutes at a tree. There’s generally 3 outcomes, they come flying out like they’re on fire, they only peek out, or nothing. Camo is optional, just sit still and relatively quiet. Our best hunt happened last year, I think we called 7 out of 5 trees, and shot 5.

I’ve had great luck calling raccoons out of den trees in the middle of the day. Put the call on the opposite site of the hole you expect them to come out of, this makes them come completely out. Turn on coon fight or coon distress and get ready!!!! Last year we had two come in running from 50...

I think a lot of trappers are going the NWCO route because the fur prices are crap. The only way to make money trapping is to do it on a nuisance basis. Hence, trappers charging to trap. I struggle with this mightily as a trapper. I’ve been fortunate to have ground to trap. I also have farmers...

I thought this bill died
