I located a couple bucks that very well could be ones I passed on last season. (thinking like that keeps my QDM spirits up, so don't burst my bubble)
Anyhow ones an 8 the other a 10. the bigger of the two looks to be 17-18 wide and into higher the 140's.
I've never heard much about this. Is...
vike4life is right the platt books of this county as well as Dubuque are way wrong! property that has changed hands five or more years ago is still listed under the previous owner. The courthouse will even tell you who is behind on thier taxes!
Best bet with the platt book may be to look at the...
Re: Taxidermy picture of "BRUTUS"
Back in 92' 93 I worked @ an Army Ammunition Depot in Il. Lost of huge bucks to observe on security patrol third shift. One that amazed me had even less curvature of the main beams than "Brutis" It was an eight pt. with a lot of mass. He did'nt look like much...
I went with 10X30 Ziess Difun's ($249) could'nt ask for more in price or quality when also considering size, they are small enough to suit me in a tree stand or stalk and still work well glassing from the truck. (first "real" pair I ever owned.
How could this not make anymore sence?
They did'nt want the deer harvested with only a one side rack! To take it then would only get the "How Dumb Was That" award!
Having Tony hunt it deer during youth season was obviously an attempt to get him on the ground before archery season and the rut...
Wait there is a possible method!
If the camera could send "real time" photos to a lap top, Knowing the camera location you could drop a couple mortor round in on the area. (provided it's during legal shooting hours)
It's just plain wrong that I have not broke down and purchased one!
There is no meat to your argument that using them is "hunting" by artificial light.
I doubt a law could be passed that would regulate placing one for that matter. You are barking up an empty tree.
I love the "Armchair Attorneys"
You are now comparing apples and oranges in the artificial light argument.
Having no weapon in hand, or not being PRESENT when the camera flashes COULD cause that argument some problem.
If you have no means of killing the deer you can shine all you want.Even...
I thought those Pennsylvania deer were so hyper-spooky?
One year I had four stands within a 80 yard circle to doop a nice 145 buck.
Hard wind spot. Never so stinky that he bolted, but was detected twice. Even a little change in location will trip'em up. I smoked him after a lot of effort.
The goal is to persuade those who hunt with reverse logic to "jump the fence" and shoot the does instead of basket rack bucks. Many talk the talk but few walk the walk. I'd never expect anyone to pass on any deer buck or doe if it is a personal trophy. The "seasoned" hunter that downs 2-3 young...
Ya can't hit'em if ya don't shoot at'em!
Well at least it's a buck!
12 guys and 10 of'em got bucks!
We could have killed a semi load of does!
I hear and see the same thing every season. Change comes slow here in farm country.
ZEISS and you CAN have the best for less! Look at this sierratradingpost.com/product.asp?base_no=67944 They were 280 last week! Mine shipped yesterday. I called and got the 235 price adjustment.
Merry Christmas

scout made it, but it cost me dearly! In the bumbfounded haze the event left me in I left my beloved iowawhitetail.com hat in the booth at chili's! The two scooners could also be to blame.
I should have ordered a spare with the PMA membership
