I think legislature made the youth tag good in all seasons not a DNR idea.

Doubt if hunting all four is gunna happen, at least they expanded the youth season.

I have several doe tags still in my backpack and have no problem with that. State can issue tag, only you can fill them

My only comment is this. There is another bill wanting to lower the Sr crossbow age limit from 70 to 65. That only took 2 years to make that request. So we working both ends of age groups. Senate File 2055 - Introduced SENATE FILE 2055 BY FEENSTRA A BILL FOR An Act authorizing the use of...

Thanks Bonker, I truly am an old fart. One of the first things I learned with trips to the State Capitol, was to pick your battles. While compromise is tough to swallow sometimes it is necessary. The IBA has gotten one of the conservation tags the last three years. I can tell you with the...

I started saving in 1967. Hunting, fishing and trapping, duck stamps. When they went away from the small square paper ones I quit saving them.

On an backpack elk hunt in Co. Didn't know it happened until 15th.

IMO. Had we used half of the time and energy to fight the Governor, that we have used on Drury and Ozonics. We might have had a chance. As hunters we spend 10 times too much effort on trivial sh*t and lose track of the really big issues. We have some really big problems in this state and Ozonics...

Great post Nanny!! I've followed thread with great interest and a lot of chuckles. I don't shoot the newest,fastest bow or the flatest shooting arrow or the bucket of blood broadhead or the scent free clothing in fact I don't own a trail cam. I scout late summer, set my stands and come Nov. when...

Big difference in Wi. and Ia DNR. Most of the DNR in Ia are trying to do what is best for hunters here. The DNR and hunters have done all that was asked of them by the Deer Task Force. All of what is happening now falls squarely on the shoulders of the Governor.

Great choice of words "stabilize" My choice might have been decimate in many counties, but hey I look at things differently. Branstad Intervenes to Stabilize Upcoming Deer Harvest 5/13/2011 12:36:56 PM Rick Robinson By Dirck Steimel, Iowa Farm Bureau Spokesman Editor After hearing a wide...

This issue is dead for the year. We have a real issue with our new Gov. and his ideas of how deer management should be handled. Can we take some of this time & energy being wasted on this thread and make sure our friends are contacting Branstad.

We are looking to stabilize the deer herd,not increase.Each year we continue at this rate will cause the herd to decrease. At the Deer Task Force meetings it was agreed that herd be taken down to the mid 90's level, which is where we are in many many counties. FB even agreed to this.

I agree, we don't have to shoot does,but part of the DNR proposal was to do away with Nov season and cut off the last week of late late season. Last two items are very important.

His decision isn't set in stone take the time to let him know how you feel.
