    CORRECTION!! Several counties in for a surprise… Return of shed buck season!!!

    Excess Tag Season?!? So any leftover doe tag is good to use? Even an unfilled antlerless archery tag? I find it interesting that the only legal weapon is a rifle and that shotguns and muzzleloaders are not allowed.

    2022 Rut vs Previous years??

    One things for sure in my area, the mature buck numbers are down and the coyote numbers are up. Rutting activity was pretty decent as I witnessed plenty of cruising and chasing, but all 1-4yr olds. My fear is that neighboring hunters lower their standards, and start killing those 4 yr olds due...

    200 inchers?

    I agree about the cell cams. I run a few and without question I noticed that some deer reacted to them in a negative way almost immediately while running them on the same trees and setups I have for years with regular cams. Its not a visual thing. They sense something for sure. Fingers...

    200 inchers?

    Me and more guys than you think. 160s aren't all that uncommon, and its not everyday we get a chance to chase a 200" deer.

    200 inchers?

    So basically what you're all saying, is that your odds of killing a 200 are better in a non-managed area? I agree

    200 inchers?

    I believe this stems from a discussion guys were having on a recent podcast. It started with the question, how many 200s are currently alive in the country? If there are 30 million whitetail deer in the US and lets say 10 mil are bucks, how many of those are 200s? The 2 individuals are...

    Clover

    What clovers are the most drought tolerant? My clover is taking a beating right now, with no relief in sight.

    Human Scent

    If they are smelling you over 100 yards away on a lighter wind, you may want to change something up in your scent control game. Lakosky also believes in conditioning the deer with his scent basically year round. On the flip side, most of us including Mark Drury, try to keep intrusion and scent...

    White flash cams

    Flash cams are the best. Only downfall is the battery consumption. And IMO, Red IR scares more deer than white flash. You won't change my mind.

    A Giant Goes Down…..

    Absolute Giant. I can't wait to see the full history/documentation of this deer! Making a jump so late in his life has to be a rarity. Congrats to all involved.

    THE WISCONSIN STORY.....

    I think NR Landowners are great. If they are doing it legally, and hunting it themselves, they can only their own property every few years. Think of the bucks those properties could grow. Less pressure. Very little harvest. Now if they allow others on their off years, then its not much different...

    THE WISCONSIN STORY.....

    I grew up and lived in Wisconsin for 27 years. Hunted all over the state for 16. I moved to Iowa in 2013, and whitetails had a big role in that. I had been traveling down to Iowa for 7 or 8 years prior to the move, to shed hunt and go to the deer classic. I fell in love. The difference in...

    Ehd time again?

    Ive heard about a few in southern Warren Co and northern Lucas. Driving through that area last week, I noticed a dead buck laying in a creek. But he was about 100 yards from the road, so it is possible he was hit on the road and just happened to die in the creek.

    2016 hunting- vacation related

    For the previous 3 seasons, Nov 6th has been the day that the light switched got flipped, for me. First 5 days of Nov had been much slower.
