Hornady SST 250 grain. This was the shot that put down my buck after I spined him. I love the accuracy but I’m making a change next year, to a bullet that actually expands.

I’d be for it. I shot 2 bucks this past year, but hadn’t killed one in a few years. Are you proposing 1 buck tag, good for all seasons?

And if you trap in the water with pocket sets, you can catch all sorts of stuff I’ve personally caught coons, muskrats, mink, beaver, possums, and otters in pocket sets.

I also had 1 night where I caught 9 that I assume we’re heading to her house. Lol!!!!

I use cheap, regular old dry cat food. Stick the trap smack dab in the middle of a hot trail, come back and collect your coon the next day. And remember to gang set, if you have enough traps….my personal best was 5 outta 6 over the course of 50 yards. Major coon trail going from the timber to...

Z traps are made in Iowa too!

Hard work and preparation always pays off Skip! Congrats on the trophy!

If it doesn’t have antlers, isn’t a button buck, and I have an antlerless tag, it’s in trouble!

I’d take the hunterra map. Not sure which size it is, but I’d pay for an upgrade if that’s possible.

I feel like South Dakota is very fair on their NR fishing license price. I think for a year it’s around $100. I go up there for two five day trips, June and September, and have done it the last two years. The fishing there, even when it’s slow, is pretty great!

The reason the state government needs revenue…..all the tax cuts. People were thrilled about it, but now we’re just paying more for the same shit to cover the difference.

Whenever I get permission, I always get a phone number and let them know when I intend on being there. Especially when night hunting coyotes! I don’t want to surprise anyone when they hear gunshots near their house after dark.

Perfect! Absolutely perfect! Very well put.

Thanks Curtis!!! Good stuff!

It is absolutely shameful! Not logic or science based at all.

Also, would you need a trapping license or a deer tag to trap deer? Both?

Can someone please link the email addresses of these folks?

One thing that I love about IW, is that the people on here seem to be legitimately decent folks. I’m a part of a trapping forum, and things there seem to devolve into a pissing match a lot. That doesn’t seem to happen here and I really appreciate that.

I believe in Iowa, that you can’t use an IR scope until after January 10. Seems silly to me, but I believe that’s the law.

I bought the “Bering Optics Hogster R-25”for $2,300. I really like it. There’s 2 regrets you will have when buying a thermal….1. You didn’t buy one sooner and 2. You didn’t buy the next expensive model
