That pic is pretty small. Can you get a bigger one posted?

The crops around osceola and indianola looked pretty toasted. We need some rain.

Great post sureshot. I completely agree with the statement you are making. I enjoy your posts. Thanks for sharing.

I appreciate everyones input. I've got a lot of good ideas from friends and others on this site. I find myself thinking all the time of things I would like to do on the land - food plots, tree stands, TSI, cabin, and the list goes on. One thing is for sure, the work won't ever be finished. But...

I just signed the papers for a farm in southeast warren county. This is the first property I've owned. The farm is basically pasture ground. There is a small pond and a creek running through the middle of the property. About 60 acres of timber and 30 of hay. Very little of the 30 acres could be...

I would use 2x8s with carriage bolts attaching then to the posts. I would use 2x6s in between the 2x8s as joists. If you can get joist hangers - use them. Of course use treated lumber if its going to be exposed to the weather. What are your plans for the wall and roof? You could use 2x4s for...

What have you guys been seeing for pasture land prices in southern IA? I am looking at a piece with about 25% open ground with some decent grass hay and the rest in timber. Pond on the property. Good fences. Do you think somewhere in the $1800 to $2000 per acre range?

I seem to remember some time ago that a member on this site was experimenting with some products on felines. Bonker can you humor us with some photos?

I must have gone about this thing all wrong. I didn't find a thing in about 2 hours of hunting. I'm not sure if they winded me or heard the truck door slam shut. Seriously though, I'm looking on the banks of the Missouri river. I don't know if the flooding last summer would have much effect or...

In going out in central Iowa on Sunday. It will be a good cure to the hangover I am sure I'll have after my buddy's bachelor party. Maybe I'll get lucky and find a shed or two. And maybe find a few little grays.

Anyone else headed to council bluffs? I'm planning to, but may be a little late arriving. I would bet I would be up for a beer afterward though if there's any takers.

I also popped it into the dvd player yesterday afternoon. It was an afternoon well spent. I too liked the aspect that there wasn't anything forced down your throat and there were no corporate sponsors. Well worth the $5!

A neighbor by some property my stepdad farms in north central Iowa releases them and he has tons of birds in about 80 acres of CRP. Probably not as many predators up there though. I'm not sure if the guy raises them himself or what though. It is really neat hearing all the birds cackling. We...

I would like to. Its been several years since I've gone.

My avatar photo is Webster county 2003 I think.

I've been looking the last few months for some hunting ground in central and southern Iowa. I (temporarily) live in SW Iowa but I am based out of Des Moines. I've been looking online at places like landwatch and lands of Iowa. I've also done a little looking on auction sites. Does anybody have...

I was up at Winnie over Memorial weekend with elusive success. Friday and Saturday we caught a few walleyes - enough to atleast have a meal on Saturday night. Sunday though, things heated up a bit as we caught enough to feed our group of 12 and still have enough to bring home a few. We caught...

I have heard great things about the bass fishing in Table Rock. One guy from work is from the area and fishes it on a regular basis and has promised to take me out. I'll keep you posted on the results.

I am originally from Iowa, but have temporarily relocated (about a year and a half) to Branson, MO through work. We have fished Lake Taneycomo for trout quite often, but have only recently ventured onto Table Rock and Bull Shoals. I was fishing Bull Shoals yesterday and we kept seeing...

I spoke with a gentlemen from the DNR at the Classic last year and he said they expected that 90% of the deer were harvested. I told him that I had expected the numbers to be much lower than that. I would think it would be closer to 75%, but that may still be generous.
