Market is very soft. If you look on ebay you'll see a several listings but if you look for actually sold items you'll see nothing is selling. My guess is you'll be lucky to get $250 for your framed prints.

I've killed several does there during late season hunts and have had success turkey hunting in the spring but have never bow hunted there. Like has been said you're going to have a lot of competition on any public land during bow season so your best bet is to find some pockets that might be...

Every year I see that "possible seminar" on there. I think a seminar or two would be great but they really need to schedule them if they ever intend to really have one.

Well according to the article he was actively participating in wrestling at the time. I guess I don't know the wording on the form and assume there are doctors that will sign anything but it seems like a loophole that people are taking advantage of.

Just got an issue of The Iowa Sportsman in the mail and saw an article about this buck. Shot on Nov 5, 2016 and scores 202 3/8". What I can't figure out is the caption says it is the largest typical ever taken with a crossbow in Iowa. Did I miss something? When did crossbows become legal in...

Cell phones or radios arr not allowed to be used to coordinate the movements of game. It's perfectly legal to text that "Jimmy killed a deer down by the creek come help us drag it out." But not legal to text Jimmy wounded a deer and it ran down by the creek. You cone in from the north and we'll...

A heater is totally different it does nothing to help you get game. Something that just keeps you more comfortable. Ozonics on the other hand is in theory designed to fool a deers sense of smell. I also don't believe in the application but could see why it would not be allowed if it actually...

We hunted there 3 or 4 years a few years ago. There is some good hunting there and I didn't think it was that crowded at that time, may have changed though. We killed a few does and my friends daughter killed her first buck there. Saw a few shooters but never got a shot at one. There usually...

Scouted out a new spot, found a tree that would work for my stand and got it all hung and set. Then I noticed two bow hooks still screwed into the tree above the stand. I hope somebody doesn't come in there this fall and vandalize my set for hanging it in "their" tree.

Mid Iowa Archers - My favorite. Always a good time. Drinks and snacks available on the course. Decent food served in clubhouse. They have made a lot of improvements the last couple of years, new towers, bridges, etc. South Central - Not bad but signing was lacking, several times we had to walk...

I may be wrong but I didn't think they could test live animals.

I spent a good amount of time today clearing a path to a spot for a new stand. This is an area thick with weeds, brush and thorns. I would like to spray it a few times over the summer to.keep the path cleared. It there a good herbacide that will kill all of those things? Something with a...

Elites finish on their risers are as good as any. The prokote/cerakote on the cams is a different story. Lots of complaints on the finish chipping off. I've heard they are going back to anodizing next year. I remember when nobody at a 3D shoot had even heard of Elite. They have come a long way.

Ordered my tickets last week. Looking forward to Winke, should be the best speaker in a while.

I have the HBS and for late season bow hunting it is the ticket. Don't see how anybody could have trouble with the carry straps, they are very simple. The HBS to me is very light and easy to carry and you don't have all those restricted layers when drawing your bow. I bought some of those...

You guys are making me feel better about having to work today, thanks. LOL.

I agree. I rarely hunt much in October anymore. Not that I don't like to but if you shoot a deer in the evening then you've got to recover it and get it field dressed and then get it home and hung, skinned and deboned and in the fridge. With the later sunset times in October before daylight...

Those early muzzy tags go quick.

That is significantly less than the shoots I attended at Hitaga. The biggest issues at the prior location were slow movement, muddy conditions (especially the huge hill leading down from the clubhouse) and a lack of water and other refreshments available to shooters. Four plus hours in 90...

Interesting but really not much useful information in the article. I generally go by appearance and smell and of course always try to get the meat cooled as fast as possible.
