There is a thread on Archery talk about it with all the details.

He was actually escorted off the stage in handcuffs at the deer classic. Wow how humiliating.

Well since we are talking about what we are giving away, our prize package includes a Covert Ground Blind, some Arrow Brake Targets, Trophy Taker broadheads, and a handful of other things that haven't been finalized. If you sign up for free at the show, you are automatically entered into the...

Stop by the Bowhuntingroad.com booth and say HI. I love meeting the guys from here. We'll be giving away a lot of cool prizes. I will also be doing bear hunting seminars. Yes bear hunting go figure. Seems like a lot of deer hunters have an interest in trying a bear hunt so that's the...

The ones I am thinking aobut, and have been asked ot do a stroy on would still look like a piece of farm equipment sitting out in the field. The key to the article they want me to do is that the deer get used to farm equipment so you can move it around without alarming them. I know I have seen...

I have a favor ro ask. I am researching an article for Field & Stream about building a rolling ground blind out of a gravity box or hayrack or some sort of rolling farm equipment. I need someone who has built one or seen pictures of one so I can send a couple photos to their art department so...

Lame commercials.

Definitely looks older than 3.5 to me.

I wonder how much of this is due to the "redistribution" of deer. Let's face it, there are a lot of places where the deer numbers are down. But go to a food plot in an area where a lot of the land is tied up by hunters either in leasing or in managing for deer and see what you think of the deer...

I lived through the pheasant boom. There weren't thatmany pheasants around during the 1970's and early 80's you really had to work for them. The 1985 farm bill changed all that. CRP was everywhere and so were the pheasants. It was unbelievable for the first ten years of the CRP program. I had 80...

WOW! He does look young. He could be world class next year.

If you look a tthe table on page two, look at the top three lines. The loss is primarily due to poor pheasant hunting. The revenue for deer is UP and offset some of the general nonresident hunting license sales decrease.

Here is my take on this. I did this short article and you are certainly welcome to disagree with me, but if you look at the big picture, this I hope explains it pretty well: http://barringer.bowhuntingroad.com/2012/01/25/iowas-governors-tag-controversy/

Hardwood, I remember when Iowa first offered nonresidents the opportunity to hunt Iowa. I was only for it at the time because of reciprosity, which opened doors for me, an Iowan, to hunt other states. It wasn't that long ago. It is NOT ABOUT THE NUMBERS OF NONRESIDENTS THAT DRAW A TAG IT IS...

It will not go away because it is such a marketing bargain. The people selected for the tags each year must show that they are producing results. The applicants must offer the numbers to show how many people they are reaching and the is the criteria uised to select the ones who get the tags. The...

There is a lot of SSS going on here already. They are hard to manage with a hunting season but trapping them will work.

You think all those TV shows hunting in Iowa arer hunting public land? They are getting comp hunts from the outfitters.

The governor does not have a part of the decision making process of who gets the tags.

I have been updating my blog with photos and info about some cool new products being introduced at the Archery trade show. some pretty neat ideas. http://barringer.bowhuntingroad.com/

Last year up on lake of the woods my son and I were muskie fishing and we saw a doe standing in the water in the bay we were fishing. At first my son said she looked funny and I couldn't figure it out until she wagged her tail. Honest to God she was standing in water not quite up to her back...
