The deer got Obama phones? :oops:

Yeah, I get its spring dispersal, but are drivers blind?

The amount of roadkill lately is stunning. I swear if there were two deer left in the state, motorists would run over three of them. ;):( With fewer deer around (hunting and EHD), are drivers becoming complacent?

Got to thinking more about this. At work, the toxic and hazardous chemicals are collected with them eventually going out of state where they are burned at high temperatures. Not 100% sure but I was told that they use the heat generated in part of the cement making process. Snip/link below...

Concerns on burning herbicide killed trees as firewood? I’d rather not, but seems like a waste. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

We are looking for recommendations for someone who does brush clearing and ag fence building in the eastern Iowa area, specifically Johnson County. Planning on woven with a strand or two of barb over top. 20 acre parcel that is up and down, across a creek or two (not fencing the big creek for...

I've used a dibble bar and maybe didn't know how to use it. You would think it'd be pretty straight forward. I'd step it in, rock it back and forth, remove it and put the tree in, stomp it shut. When I rocked it back and forth, it made a cavity down near the tip of the bar (pivoted at the...

I bought some clover for just this purpose.

How fast does Triclopyr and diesel work? If sprayed now, do you see funky shaped leaves when buds break?

I walked a property today, no sheds found. I did find a buck skull, probably 2 -3 years old, with the antlers sawed off above the brow tines. From the looks of it, there probably wasn't a lot above the brows, guessing 1.5 yr old. Pulled camera cards deployed Feb 2. Not an antler to be...

I had a huge hollow cottonwood tree that was hollow and was a raccoon factory. I always wanted to toss a "water" balloon of gas into it and strike a match. A derecho took care of it for me.

Hopefully you grabbed a bag of fishing "plastic" worms off the table to not leave empty handed. I was throwing tickets in white buckets and read after I tossed a ticket in that it was for crossbow broadheads. Almost dug that ticket back out, LOL. I did win a white bucket raffle drawing for...

I heard that there was a foot chase through the hall, the DNR had an alert out for poacher who showed up with a rack/mount. I missed it, darn it!

Walking in on Friday I started talking to a couple who were from just north of Pike County. He mentioned is has rebounded a bit.

I was over in DSM this past weekend to attend the Iowa Deer Classic. I kept telling people that it had been a long time since I had attended, guessing 15 to 20 years. I looked through my image files on a remote hard drive and see that I last attended in 2006, 19 years ago. The event has...

Interested in Field's reply. We had Solon Feed Mill grind a special blend of horse feed and I would imagine they would do a deer feed if they have or can source the ingredients. Find a local feed mill and ask is my best advice. Solon would bag or deliver in bulk (for a fee). Don't think they...

I love it when the article is about whitetail deer and then they show pictures of other members of the cervid family. Slide #10 for Montana has a picture of elk. Totally blows credibility IMO (if they ever had any), but the average person probably doesn't take notice.

Just got back from a walk. Sheds: 0, EHD deadhead buck: 1:(

Maybe bump into you but I plan on being at the ISC banquet. That might keep our paths from crossing.

I looked at a SE IA parcel for sale last week that I thought was interestingly priced at around S3,400/acre, then saw it had just been placed in WRP. Solid nope from me, but maybe if that gets lifted, it's a steal?
