dead buck somebody probably hit it by the time you got back someone i bet allready cut the head off. never take a rack without salvage tag the fine is set according the the score of the rack it can be VERY expensive.

odd rack good to take him out of the breeding circle they all don't have to be perfect 10's even a doe is a special moment you will remember the whole hunt forever:way:

ehd #'s have lost about 30 on the place we hunt in SW IA along the MO river some good bucks mostly. hurt the deer herd's all over the midwest:mad:

racoons DNR would be a good choice guessing it's common to have them die off if overpopulated about like any thing in nature it takes care of itself, as stated in some earlier posts there was a good program on a nature show about urban racoons one thing they said was ring worms were a threat to...

bear archery really not cool!!:(

decoy's sometimes i have had good and bad responses with the decoys some does it's doesn't bother and other's just go nuts, as far as buck's go nothing but excellent response during the rut would not go with out the Montana's during the rut.:way::way::way::way::way::way::way: and hope for eight...

old days miss the old days when crp fields were miles long, roosters were everywhere we hunted up around Manning IA and limited out every time, usually went with a party of about 15 to 20 hunters and would always have a huge pile of birds they were not very spooky back then and lots of them...

doe tongue Ehd should be done now it takes about a week or two after infected for the deer to show sign's of Ehd. after first freeze the midges should have died off, not sure about blue tongue , could just be a deer that don't like your camera !!!!:grin:

alter don't let negative posts bother you there are things that happen that can't be explained and would guess everyone who bow hunts make mistakes. no matter how much you practice shooting a target shooting at a deer is totally different, this is proven by some of the experts that have TV...

dead coons last couple of years our coons have been poor. either sick or the hide has been poor, guessing there are just too many around, too bad the price of them is so low, sure miss when they were worth between 30 & 50 $ a piece, guess pita has forever changed that.:mad:

sometimes they work I have had does lay down next to my Montana does but it was just before the rut. seems like after the rut they shy away and cause some problems i have not had any problems with the bucks not wanting to come in close to check them out last 7 were off the decoys.

anybody finding any dead raccoons while out hunting? been seeing quite a few around SW IA. seeing some during the day acting sick, good idea if out and see any to take them down.

rattle them in for some not too aggressive rattling i use a set of heavy racks drill a hole in them and tie them together in a loose loop so they will do a lot of banging around i then lower them to the ground from the stand and shake them up and down hard, they bang together pretty loud and...

i've used the Montana decoy doe's for seven years use three of them and have tagged out each year on bucks during the rut best was a 158 1/2 rest were all 8's or better, they all came to them when they seen them,does also come to them but they seem to not like them after the rut and late season...

dead deer liver shot personally i would not process a deer that coyotes have ate on don't know what they have been into, best thing for you would be save the rack and let the dogs have it. i know it's hard to waste it but since they have allready found it it's not worth getting sick over.

make noise make it sound like 2 bucks trying to kill each other, break sticks bang them together, i found if you find a blow down with a lot of limbs and use a large stick and go crazy on it rattle and grunt don't be afraid to create some noise, it will help if you have a buck decoy close but...

political signs sounds like them crap thrower's need to practice some, but then maybe Romney's morman leader misdirected the crap to stop him from getting !!!t faced, god help this country if he's elected!!!!!!:moon:

tags better check with the DNR the fine is very high if done illegal phone call is a lot cheaper.:drink2:

Montana decoys Hi i have been using the Montana doe's for 7 yrs and have got my buck each year with them. just before the rut and during they have been excellent, i use 3 of them to position in different directions, place where bucks can see them form a distance if they are looking for a doe...

Montana decoys i've used the Montana doe's for the last 7 yrs and they have produced 7 good bucks the best a 158 1/2 i use 3 or 4 and position them so deer can see them from different positions and when a buck is chasing a doe and she see's the decoy she will come in to be near the decoy and...
