Woo hoo!!!!

Yep. 5% tax on vehicle purchases.

Shot this buck Saturday morning. I had a feeling it was going to be a good day as the Temps were cold and the wind had finally died down overnight after howling for two days straight. I saw him three times before the doe he was shadowing led him to my stand. Gross score 156 6/8. Team #3.

Not sure you can make too many guarantees if the site is for sale. Unless you are the new owners? Ultimately whoever purchases the site, assuming someone does, will determine what direction this site goes. It might be a far different animal than what we are envisioning today.

I bought a couple of heated fleece vests at the Cabela's bargain cave. They work pretty well. I do think the key is getting the heat inside your insulating layers which is why I wear the vest over my shirt then an outside layer over that to hold the heat in. I also have the Wooltimate pants and...

Congratulations!

Love that gun.

It helps that you have income from the 20 acres of CRP. We used Farm Credit Services of America. Bought land first then refinanced and built home on the land a year or so later. I would give them a call and talk to a loan specialist who can give you all of your options.

I don't know if anybody on here makes decals or if you can order a small order but I think a cool thing to do would be to have some of the IW decals printed with the addition of "2017-18 Deer Contest Champions" or something along those lines below the logo. Would be cool to have something like...

I better get out there and hunt, they'll be on lockdown by next week. I'd say you're probably ok with a south wind but if it switches to SW then I'd pack up and go home because the scent from that newer strand will blow all the deer off of your property. Unless you have ozonics, or scentlok, or...

I'm changing my approach this year. In th past I have shot for that Nov 7-10 period a lot are referring to but the last few years the weather has been terrible (temps in the 60's and even 70's) and deer activity has not been very good. This year I'm staying flexible and watching the weather. If...

Hey I saw a buck follow a doe this morning, do you think the rut is starting?

Hey things are already looking up, it's day one and we already have a deer contest for the masses.;);)

Paul was a legend. He was a huge source of knowledge and he loved to share it. You absolutely should preserve his legacy by preserving his threads BUT my fear is that if you don't fix the more immediate issues this website will wither into obscurity and then nobody will see Paul's posts anyway.

No worries. I'm just pointing out that although you may not like Facebook the iowa Bowhunter group I just found has 10 times the activity of this forum and it is a medium that is still growing to its potential. I don't know how that can help this forum other than getting members involved and...

I'm in.

Congratulations! 160 is a beast of an 8 pointer!

I'm sure Kodak was not a fan of digital photography, where did that get them? Times change, you either change with them or get left behind. I appreciate your opinion but attitudes like that are not going to save this forum.

I hope I didn't offend anybody.

I'm not going to sugar coat things so please don't take offense. This forum had been dying for a long time. This thread is evidence that people see that. The issue is traffic, there just aren't enough new and interesting postings to make the site worthwhile anymore. I've been around here a long...
