Any of the forum members have a booth at this weekend's deer classic? What are you selling?

One tweak I think should be looked at is the section size..Most of the sections are divided into approx 40 acre squares. Some are 39.7 or 39.1..you would hate for someone to miss a LOT just because their section was just under 40.. maybe make it 39 instead if 40. Also, some will say 40 acres...

When I secured my rednecks blinds for the year i found where someone had been hunting out of one of them. A couple of windows were unlatched and curtains were not how I leave them..I think guys were coming in at night with thermals..Possibly the shed poachers we caught a couple weeks ago. I just...

Young...They are really taking a risk with all the cell cams and some landowners may give them more than they want if caught on the property.

We pressed charges against 3 guys a couple weeks ago. They stole sheds and SD cards. Thanks to a neighbor we got them.

Agreed. i sent them a donation to be used for lobbying efforts recently.

I have a 606NT that's in great shape. I would like to learn more about your 706 for a possible trade/cash. What year is it? Stored indoors? I'm right near Lamoni.

I think the fogging is very common on every brand camera in open areas. Dew or frost gets on the lense almost every morning. For those that hunt out of redneck or similar blinds, the windows fog or frost over almost every morning....Same with cameras.

Banning in season baiting would increase age structure and stop the cheaters..I'm all for it!

I sent the emails in and actually received a return email from Art Staed that wasn't a canned response. Nice to see he actually read my email.

Yep. Then we slip out after lunch for an afternoon hunt on his farm..:p

I agree with all! Skip, can we not get a bill out there that bans all in season feed/bait? This is a HUGE problem in a lot of areas. I know guys like to supplemental feed, but doing it outside of hunting season will still be available. The only people against this bill would be the actual baiters.

I I do think Landowners deserve something. Many have invested large sums of money in Iowa and pay a lot of taxes on the property they purchased.

Agreed. Everything today seems to be making hunting easier. Let's make some changes that actually make it harder and more challenging.

Ultimately, I'd love to see a 2 buck max for every Iowa resident. That would include party hunting and even the horribly run state of Illinois has a 2 buck max. Really a 1 buck limit with an extra tag for landowners would be ideal (of course hunters that don't own land would say that is not...

Thanks for the info..Buck hollow doesn't sell Matthew's and that is a bow i was interested in shooting..Liability wise i wasn't concerned with, it is more setting it up right and not taking shortcuts. .Cam timing, drop away rest timed correct, d-loop dead center, etc... ..I'll probably give them...

Has anyone purchased a new bow at Scheels Des Moines recently and had them set it up? How did they do and are you happy at the detail they used in setting it up correctly? I'm getting a new bow and trying to decide whether to buy from Scheels or not.

Were your enlist beans treated? I planted untreated enlist beans last spring and the deer hammered them too much. It really limited my yield and the beans that did pod out, got hammered this fall.

Last year they threw a couple things in late like the cell cam ban on public. I wonder if they will try that this year with something big like legalizing crossbows during archery?

Nice offer!
