2009 models accept only up to 2GB cards don't they? I have 2 and my brother has one. They hold about 1100 to 1200 pics on a 2GB set on 5MP. Larger card capicity would sure be nice, I've had some times where they were full in 1 or 2 weeks and didn't check them until week 2 or 3 and they were...

Not true on a couple things there IMO. Iowa is great because the gun season is in December. The best 3 states for buck age structure, IA, OH, and KS all have gun seasons in December after the rut. Kansas even allows rifles. Just look at Minnesota, they are SHOTGUN ONLY AND 1 BUCK LIMIT (all...

What part of which state was that in? Since 2000, between 5 hard winters and lots of cold rainy springs, our turkey population is way down since the late 90s. Turkey numbers haven't been the same since '99. Not even close. Winters of 2000-2001 and 2007-2008 we lost a lot of turkeys in...

Exactly my feelings all along. I've lived and hunted in the "CWD Zone" in Southern WI all my life. I think it's been here forever. 9 years ago the WDNR said if we don't kill every deer, they'd all be dead by now from CWD. Our deer are as healthy as they've ever been. IMO, as well as almost...

If you saw very little rutting action this year and very few deer numbers in general, you are not alone. I think there's at least 3 other threads on here right now discussing the same thing.

I hunted everyday from Oct 30 to November 19th. Also hunted Nov. 26th and 28th. By far, this was the worst rut I've ever seen in November. Oct 30 and 31st I saw great rutting action, then the switch turned off for me big time in November. I saw a few decent ones in November, but nothing like...

quote:"I know of a 200 acre parcel around here where the owners had not harvested any does for like 8 years and they ended up with more than they or their neighbors wanted. One year they took like 23 and there were still a lot left that they wanted to take almost that many the next year too."...

quote:"The only flaws I can see in your theory is that the land with an overpopulation of land that is leased up or owned by someone that doesn't think there is to many deer.The farmers that think they have to many are the ones that let everyone and their brother hunt,have people doing drives...

In the last 9 years or so, I think Iowa has added all these seasons: the antlerless hunt the 3 days following Thanksgiving, the January Antlerless season, and the nonresident Holiday antlerless season. The have increased antlerless tags from almost nothing to thousands in many counties (4500 in...

For anyone interested, check out the "106,000 deer in two days" thread, it's related to this thread in a lot of ways.

quote:"Even if the data supports numbers down, the idea that Iowa has too many deer is ingrained. Has been fed to the general public for yrs now." Exactly what happend here in the early 90's, the DNR drove it into every person in WI that there are way too many deer here. Now after 10+ years of...

Yeah, just wait til Iowa is like Wisconsin. I hope Iowa's deer quality doesn't continue to go down like it has the past 9 years. I've hunted in NE Iowa (or sat in my stands to observe in years when I didn't draw a tag) each year since 2001 and from what I have observed and from what I read in...

Yes, does will usually have their fawns with them or close by this time of year unless they are in heat or close to coming in to heat. The weird thing about this year, is that usually during the rut, it is common to see does by themselves because they are either in heat or close to it, and...

quote: "Did you find him? One year I had 3 does who left no blood trail. They were so fat that the fat was plugging up the holes...." Sorry this is off topic of the thread a bit, but I had the same thing happen last December on a doe I arrowed through the lungs. My arrow passed right through...

Anyone who was out this past weekend or is going to be hunting this week, please let us know how the hunting action is going, if it seems like buck movement/chasing/seeking is picking up at all or staying the same or starting to dwindle down. I will be getting back to bowhunting after...

For quite a few years now I have hunted the rut almost everyday from Oct 30 to Nov. 15, some years later than that when I get a tag for Iowa, and this is the worst rutting action I've ever seen. Very little daylight activity from mature bucks, very little to no chasing and hard seeking by...

My 2 brothers, Dad, and I have all shot one over and 2 under as long as we've been shooting bows, which is since we were young kids. Seems like it feels right. With all you who are shooting 3 under, what advantage do you think it has over the one on top and 2 under? Less string pinch, but...

dbltree, I know you usually recommend burning switch in late April or early May so the cool season grasses and weeds are set back right when the NWSG are ready to really start growing, but is there a time when it's too late to burn switch because it will harm the growing plants? For example, if...

Thanks for posting that link dbltree. They had a description and picture of what I've seen on a few apple trees (they are 2-3 year old trees transplanted as 1 yr old seedlings a year or 2 ago). from the link: "white woolly material on branches, trunk: woolly apple aphid. Insecticidal soaps...

Does anyone know where we can get any of the Haygrazer alfalfa seed?
