For the most part, that is a very well written piece. I for one believe that we in Iowa need to do whatever it takes to find more funding for all outdoor activities. (Everyone should help fund them) I really hope the sales tax bill gets approved when we get to vote on the issue. I do have...

i CAN FIND THE LEADERBOARDS, BUT NOT THE PICTURES, DANG.

Hi all, Does anybody have pics of the deer classic winners? I would especially like to see one of the Hattie Peck 232 3/8.

AMEN!!!!!!!!!!!

The Snopes article was written before they started drilling into the Three Forks-Sannish formation, which is directly beneath the Bakken. Since July, I know of a rancher who has had 7 wells drilled on his land. The first four came in at over 4,000 barrels a day. I know of a well that came in at...

The 285 score is the gross score of course.

It is most definitely true. I have been on a drilling site there. I stood in the Kilgore battlefield National Historic site and could count 6 rigs drilling and another site was being frakked. This technology is being used EVERYWHERE!!!!!!!!!! The OLD domestic oil fields are being reentered to...

I took no photos and apologize for a couple slight errors on the numbers. #2 Should read 272 3/8. Was on the floor in a booth after scoring and I doubt it was in the contest. #4 number should be 232 3/8. In my opinion, it was the "Best of show" A real giant. Shot by the lady. There were...

There has NEVER been or EVER will be again such a gathering of HUGE deer harvested in one year again anywhere. Unbelievable!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

By the way, those are NET scores.

Just returned from the classic. In terms of antlers, There will NEVER EVER be a display of huge whitetails like this again. 275 5/8 Simmons 274 Des Moines found dead 264 Chris Wood 238 Fairfield lady The state has NEVER had 270s and 260 before and it is only Friday night.

The oil boom is absolutely stunning in its implications. However much oil is in North Dakota, the real important thing is that the technology is being used EVERYWHERE. 95 per cent in the old oil patch is NOW available!!!!!!!!!!!!! There is NO NO NO shortage of crude oil available domesticaly...

Times ARE tough with NO end in sight. If I were younger, I would head for North Dakota. There are jobs of ALL kinds. If you are breathing and come to work opportunities are unlimited. At last check there were 20,000 openings in every field. I been there and saw it with my own eyes. The state...

Congratulations to those involved!!!!!!!!!!!! I for one cannot wait to here the REAL numbers. Sure looks like there might be one huge judgement call to make in the scoring. A really really great deer.

Does this thing REALLY net 215? Someone was alledging that!!!!!!!

I have some ideas. PM me if ya wanta talk.

My county had issued 100 antlerless tags for the year and promptly sold ALL of them. I did not get one at the time. I now wish to buy one but cannot. The DNR gave 20 depradation tags apiece to 3 adjacent landowners who have historically done everything they can think of to attract deer...

I live in a county that the IDNR gave 100 antlerless licenses. They were snapped up quickly. I cannot get one anymore. They gave 60 DEPRADATION licenses in addition to three farming operations. That seems unfair to me. I guess I can maybe go ask these landowners if they have any left.

Them snappers are really good eat. VERY VERY old to be that size and kinda a shame to kill em. Tough call There is a gentleman in Des Moines that would be very interested in keeping them alive. He has a 70 some pound one in his basement. Florida snapper. It is NOT an alligator snapper either.
