I do want to say, 1000 times over, thank you for all that you do Skip. And everyone that can attend and has attended, Thank you. Some days I can potentially make it and some days not. I am closer to Minneapolis than I am Des Moines, so it's tough sometimes. Thank you all- and again, thank...

Correct- they ask for 1 parcel. Not all

Ive heard they make a spray for that? but if its inside the camera, that cant possibly work. I know all my cameras, regardless of brand, fog when they are in the "open" areas. Now if we really want to talk about 360s- I still have one of the Wildgame Innovation 360s- and it still WORKS. NO ONE...

absolutely agree- again, I think there are ways to clean it up before they start taking. Just my opinion the baby steps need to happen otherwise there will be an uproar. I think this has been a very constructive discussion on here, thats not always the case with Facebook or most of the general...

I’m for both as long as it’s all tags removed, if it’s truly about the resource. Again- there is zero data that says the deer ever get shot on “2 acres”. That’s the thing. If there was a revamp to the system to list out all parcels, and someone only had 2 acres- boom- removed. But it still...

Literally just plugged in numbers- I don't care either way. I heard on a podcast today that a "decent sized" farm in Iowa is 160 acres. And that the AVERAGE farm is 345 acres. I guess lets plug those numbers in instead? I have been fighting since the beginning either all or none... I just...

First year here they didnt touch mine, last year I had to fence while growing to actually get anything.

So let me ask you this- are you looking for "one spot" to hunt- how are you wanting to hunt it? I think a bit broader picture might help for that aspect. If you have a good enough screen, the one access next to the bedding wouldnt be terrible, but if they are bedding that close to your access-...

So I will play my "best case scenario" for any form of Landowner tag cleaning up. Call this a 4-5 year plan for example. You would never be able to tackle this all at once. 1- No more tenants. I think this is abused. 2- Landowner on Deed only. (Remove LLC? etc? I dont know how that works in...

Stealth Cam- I keep looking at them but havent pulled the trigger. Honestly shocked Tactacam hasnt came out with one

Call me naive until last year- but I didnt realize people were baiting that hard in Iowa. That is until my nonresident neighbors showed up for the second year in a row. Talking to the landowner (not the hunters), I was shocked what they had done while they were here to get the deer to "their...

Remember- its 40 acres in one parcel- not total too.

Again- just because I like the respectful debate here. I fill my LOT tag this year- I am registered on my 17 acres. Where did it come from? My 17? My 30? My rental 60+? There is, I assume, zero data that tells anyone that people are legitimately shooting them on 2 acres? Just simply they are...

This is purely a question- How many tags is this going to actually fix? Again- if someone has over 40 acres- they can STILL hunt those small pieces. If they want to "rent" ground- They can STILL hunt those small pieces. So using the acreage without the true information on the backside literally...

Thank you!

Has anyone planted it? It been decent? Or am I better off looking for my own mixture? (Or creating something?) Basically- we do have a fruit orchard and bees on my home place and not having “tons” of time with 2 little girls and everything else as well. Looking to plant something that gives me a...

Honestly- biggest change in Iowa the last 20 years has been the doe slaughter, followed with CWD killing, then the plethora of EHD outbreaks. Landowner tags- in this scenario- are literally nothing. Doe tags are what truly need to adjust to get back to quality of the herd first and foremost. I...

dans is an automatic reply he’s busy this time of year. They were really responsive and agreeable with my emails. (Which typically I get fabricated emails back- these ones seemed “real”)

I said earlier- I could get behind all LOT getting dropped versus the split right now. But I’ve said plenty- the system itself needs the revamp first and only be owners on deed. That’s the logical first step to close abuse. Then ease into either acreage limit or completely phase out. But im done...

I keep seeing Skip say “shoot unlimited does”… isn’t that what we should be stopping? I mean right now you can clearly see a divide amongst landowners- and only because you are wanting to take from some but not all. I think all of us say- you take them all, ok. You take none, ok. But the acreage...
