Just recently the river was beginning to settle down then we got pounded in Kossuth Co. Thursday eve.

Yessir. That's some mighty-fine pickinanasingin there.

Those are some amazing fish! I'm not a high-water fisherman so it's been carp stick'n for me this spring.

A and a half.

Well there you go. It's settled. Now let me off the hook.

Like I said... "Don't take my word for it...Verify it." I only hunt with my bow. Where I hunt is my business.:moon:

This thread made me stop and think about the "Jordan Buck" and just how long it stayed out of the books; and, of the journey it took to get there. For all the right reasons stated above, there has got to be some great racks tucked away in this state with great stories yet to be told.

Was typing while Central Iowa was sending.

You are allowed two turkeys. For example, I have a statewide archery tag to fill. Should I be successful in that venture, I may purchase a tag for any one of the remaining seasons in my attempt for a second bird. Should I fail to fill my second tag and a season is still available, I can purchase...

Out of my recurves...Goldtip 3555 trads, 29" w/ 150gr. fixed blade Out of my longbow...29" 11/32 cedar w/125gr. fixed "How sweet it is."

I draw, aim and release just as I'd done all summer long. I watched in complete disbelief as my arrow, flying true towards this deers vitals makes a sudden 90 degree nose dive right into the dirt about 5 yds in front of the deer. He runs little ways, snorts, looks around and wanders off! I...

Welcome to the fold. Eat, sleep and breathe trad. That's not to say I don't incorporate some high tech into my scouting here in Iowa... I'm not getting any younger. Tradgang on the web is a good place to visit for all levels of traditional experience.

I've seen the damage Rage mech's can do and must admit it is impressive. Nonetheless, I have heard and read of the many bad experiences hunters have had. Were I forced to use a mech, it would be the NAP style. I am a traditional bowhunter; and, for me the best broadhead is a cut-on-contact fixed...

This is purely and simply commercial interests attempting to create a new market for their wares. Crossbows are not archery! Moreover, these contraptions are not worthy of "bowhunting" discussion. For disabled and elderly hunters I think they're great. For the rest of you trying to find an...

Definitely cut-on-contact. I've settled on the ones with bleeder blades. Have tried others, but there is just something about sharpening my own. Keep in mind your arrow will stablize quicker, fly better and carry more poop down range when it is 7-10% front heavy of center. Center being overall...

I'd still hunt the thickest cover I could find.

Gamehide Raingear I have a set of "Gamehide" in Mossy Oak. Lightweight (under 5# dry), comes with stuff sac and very affordable. It's not as quiet as wool, but it's quiet; and, best of all...it works!

It's a shame youth has to be wasted on the young.

God job. Nice buck. Now you know what a gutshot deer does while it lies there succumbing to its wound. Not much. May as well be back at the ranch, eh?
