I had plenty of good deer to chase, and had a couple really good encounters this year. 2021 is looking promising, a few of these bucks are still on cam after the shotgun seasons.

I tried these for the 1st time this year. It's pretty amazing how well they draw deer to them. I was starting to worry they were going to get this 1 broke in 1/2.

Very nice, congrats.

I don't use a phone. On the computer the main folder is by year. Folders within the year have individual folders for each deer that's big enough to identify. When the clutter gets to be too much for a deer I go through and pick the best facing, broadside, and going away pic. This way I only...

I own 22 acres, lease 40 acres, and hunt public. The owning and leasing were new to me this year. Every year previous to this was exclusively public. The only reason I'm leasing is because it borders what I own, and I would like to buy it when the guy wants to sell in a couple years. I still...

I was splitting wood in the yard last night, and had to run into the house to grab my bow. in a 1/2 hr span a mature 8 bred a doe within 50 yards of me while 3 other bucks watched. After they left another mature buck ran a doe through on a full sprint with 2 other bucks in tow. The mature 8 is...

Showing my wife the data to prove I need more time in the stand generated quite the eye roll. According to the numbers I hunted less than the average hunter. I don't think the data swayed her opinion.

I had 2 little bucks last week on cam still in velvet. It's the latest I remember seeing any.

I'm pumped. This will be my 1st season as a landowner. Closest stand will be 200 yards out the back door. No more driving if I don't want to, or struggling to avoid people on public ground. 1st card pull last week had 3 bucks on it I would shoot given the chance.

I just bought part of a property this last summer, and bought the rest in Dec. so far I've put up 3 wood duck boxes and 7 blue bird boxes. I'm currently burning off the pasture ground and planting a pollinator mix plus planting clover for fire breaks. I've got trees and flowering native shrubs...

Hunting public I use cheap cams. I have a Stealth Cam PX14 and 2 QS12's. The PX14 is in year 4 with no issues. The QS12's are probably what Meyer bought. 1 works fine except for the slow trigger speed. The other is junk. It worked for about a month, and now takes photos continuously until the...

I fished a pond in Tama Co. on Thursday. 5-6 inches of good ice.

Good luck, it seems like as access to private gets harder to come by the public gets hit harder and harder. I've bow hunted public in IA for 15 years. Once I find a good spot I seem to have it to myself for 2-3 years before I get crowded out, and then it's on to the next spot. It's tough, but...

98 Grand Prix for me. Traded it in blood stains and all after college.

Anyone else make it out chasing birds, yet? I went out quick this afternoon, and managed a couple on public ground. I'm pretty lucky to have a solid dog to keep me on them. Sent from my XP8800 using Tapatalk

I really like my Stealth Cam PX14. It's around $90, and I'm on my 4th year using them with no issues.

The cars haven't gotten all of them. I was struggling to get any decent ones on camera. Sent from my XP8800 using Tapatalk
