Pretty cool photo there. Nice buck, craziness stuck in his rack and a couple extra critters on the forest floor.

Looks like some type of skin issue rather than a true piebald. It looks like the long guard hairs are exposing patches of the under fur.

Looks like a mink, and another mink, both with backs arched at the moment the camera took the photo, and the one on the left is head turned looking over at the other.

Very adaptable animal native to North and South Americas until we ran them to extinction in our area. Same as we did for elk, bears, wolves, etc, and same as we almost did for whitetails, otters, turkeys, etc. I do not see us sustaining a population in Iowa without them being regulated, and my...

As already stated, one antlerless, period, until 9/15. After that it is first come first served for unfilled tags. You cannot buy an antlerless bow and antlerless gun today. It doesn’t work that way.

And I thought I might be the only one using this trick. It sometimes takes me a try to two to get the balance figured out but it does work. However, as I get older and continue to find myself out there on my own quite often, I am quite interested in the feedback on truck hitch hoists. I have a...

I eat most of my tags.

Tree puller = no stump, correct?

Are you asking about next year’s contract? I typically see them settled September the year prior.

The farmer owns the land to the center of the road. The rest of us have an easement to use the road. That’s how I view it.

Easily more than one per minute when I go it solo. And that is without trying to hurry since I simply like doing it and being out there with nature. I could see 2 of you getting 150-200 or more if you go it on a mission to get er done.

Those solid copper barnes are pretty decent. Very few explosions with them. The shoulder is a fairly small target compared to a good vitals shot. Also, many who think they are aiming at a shoulder are actually putting on a fairly decent vitals shot...

I don’t know but in my area I would rather see a deer from straight across the river to my area of Iowa than one from an endemic area of Iowa. I get your concerns but I don’t think this rule applies to entire other states, only the “endemic areas” apply.

That there is a spectacular photo. Thanks for sharing with all of us!

I have seen them come back normal the following year and I don’t know that it would goof up the genetics in the buck, even if it doesn’t. This question reminds me of the Lovstuen buck. It sure paid off for them to pass on the one year it had a weak side (due to a leg injury from previous year...

Exactly this, but maybe a few years more.

Yup, flies.

.44 for the firearm. Projectile can be smaller. That is not the rule for some neighboring states but it is for Iowa.

Still completely covered with snow here. East Central IA a few minutes ago. Getting better, but still tough conditions for the critters.
