Thanks for the new seat Bonker, hope you didn't need it in your bedroom at home, it ain't going anywhere!

This tale starts during 2nd season this spring. Bonker was up to the Stabbin Cabin for our annual hunt. The "facilities" consist of a 5 gallon pail with the bottom cut out over a hole dug up the hill behind the cabin, well hidden in the cedars for privacy. I even have one of those toilet seats...

Hey, no matter what you eat when you're here, climbing the mountains has to be good for you. If it doesn't kill you.

I've done 3 of these and helped do many more. Success depends entirely on what you do after the oaks emerge. You MUST tube or preferably cage each tree you want to save. We have discovered best way to do this is to nut seed the walnut and we used to do ash as a trainer but now I think you just...

I'm glad some things never change. Bonker is still delusional.

those kipper snacks are the grossest ever. Potted meat? Bet that is some choice cuts!

I can attest to the fact that if it isn't a bag of chocolate wax covered donuts or a can of Coors Light, Bonker can't open it.

Thanks Bonker!

Anyone else see the guest column by Jon Stravers on March 14 concerning the funding of the Natural Resource Trust Fund? I'm not good at posting links but if you search" Jon Stravers Gazette" it will come up. Sums things up pretty well I think.

Can't find anything on 2016

Can you imagine what the IBA Spring Banquet would be if ALL the Iowa based celebrities would be there? Not because they are paid, but just to show support and rub elbows with regular Iowa bowhunters? I doubt we could find a place big enough to hold the crowd. Why they don't show up is beyond...

Sorry for the confusion. I meant roughly 5 miles north of Harper's. I did a quick count of sections and came up with around 30. So about 30 square miles.

Yes they had a map of the target areas. I'm from Clayton so I wasn't real familiar with the township names and roads. Roughly, a little west of Harper's Ferry.Stretching from north side of Yellow River Forest, including a bit of it, about 3 sections wide, about 5 miles north. Of course...

Just another bit of info. Last fall, one landowner in Wisconsin found 13 deer dead or dying of CWD on his property. He was at or very near ground zero of the outbreak 13 years ago there. There is one instance, in New York, where an outbreak appears to have been contained, and that is what our...

I attended yesterday's meeting in Harper's Ferry. Dale Garner did an excellent job of presenting the situation to a packed house of people. They are asking for 150-200 more samples from the immediate area where these positives were found. They asked for volunteers to participate in collecting...

What a set-up! You guys outdid yourselves this year. Thanks for a great night!

Don't blame the DNR. They tried to back off the "management" and politicians overrode their recommendations.

Just had a partnership fall apart in my neighborhood. They had no formal agreement for anything, just equal partners. What a mess. They will never speak to each other again. Biggest problems I see are divorce by one of the partners, kids growing up and wanting to hunt, someone retires and...

I hear you. Will be awaiting the results of this years testing with a lot more dread than in previous years.

Congrats Muddy. What is passed from generation to generation is so important.
