I think it's time for a sub-section for the NR landowners on this site. They're so darn important to our economy and way of life; they deserve a section all to themselves!

Lol; 821 members in a state with 4 times the population of Iowa. How could anybody have missed that?

Same here. Creek ran entire valley; hillside to hillside. Lost crops and anything that wasn't nailed down!

This site is getting so bad; there can't even be an intelligent discussion about real concerns in Iowa. It's got to be taken over by implants from Minnesota and Pennsylvania. Not even what you would call implants, because they don't even have the decency to live here! I googled Minnesota and...

Nice gun, and you got in on the $100 rebate to boot!

Lol; that's just over slot size on the Mississippi!!

Your trophy bullheads and mosquitos weren't worth the gas it took to go up there. And that was gas prices in the 60's. I love the way Minnesota people push their lakes. I've seen farm ponds with better water and fish. I guess it's because it's really the only thing they have enough of to brag...

How on earth can we compare deep pocket investors from Minnesota buying farms in Iowa to Iowans buying a cabin in Minnesota?? You've got to be kidding!! My family owned a cabin on a lake in Minnesota from the early 60's till sometime after I left home in the 70's. I hated going up there!! And we...

While we're at it; maybe we could change the seasons in Iowa so they won't coincide with Minnesota's seasons. Wouldn't want you guys missing out on that trophy buck in Minnesota while hunting Iowa! Second--the NRLO's who belong to the Friends Of Iowa claim that 1/3 of the state belongs to them...

Only NRLO's could take a thread about the state of the Iowa DNR, and turn it into a whining session about the state of the poor NRLOs.

Could I get a resident fishing license if I owned land along a lake in Minnesota, but lived in Iowa?

I don't know what you are talking about. You can hunt does every year. And they are bigger than your Pennsylvania bucks! And has anybody thanked you for everything you do as a NR landowner in our fine state?

No need to shoot one for me. I can kill 3 every year! It's one thing to hunt out of state. It's a completely different thing to buy up the hunting ground out of state and throw up "No Hunting" signs!

There is no requirement or obligation to allow NR landowners to hunt bucks every year either. That was the regulations when you purchased your land and will be for a long time to come. My point is the NR landowner does hurt deer hunting for residents. You are no exception. Be happy with what...

I would be for NR landowners receiving a preference point if they opened their land to resident hunters. If the NR landowner refused to open his or her land to a pool for residents to acquire hunting; they would not be eligible for any preference over any other nonresident. The argument over...

I don't understand. You can kill a doe on your land every year. Do bucks eat that much more than does? If so you can party hunt with your neighbors every year and kill them also. With the lowest amount of public hunting land in the United states; residents rely on private land to enjoy deer...

There are plenty of resident hunters who can control the deer numbers on your land. Or is this another "NO Hunting" NR farm?

Though the minimum acreage for a LO tag may seem ridiculous; they are still required to hunt only that small parcel of acres. At least the landowner is guaranteed a place to hunt every year! Those who are opposed to the LO tags in general might think twice when it comes time to secure private...

I think our DNR resources are in really bad shape if Iowa needs to rely on NR landowner's license money to stay operating. I know the Friends Of Iowa group want us to believe they own 1/3 of the state, but I don't see giving them the right to hunt every year making any significant difference in...

Maybe this is more about all hunting licenses in general than just deer hunting licenses. I'm not sure if it is access, lack of mentors, or more interest into hand held gadgets than the outdoors. I do know hunting license sales continue to decline and it isn't caused by nonresident hunters, EHD...
