If you can't prove they stole or destroyed something; it's a simple misdemeanor. I've turned in the same person three times in 6 years, and he got $65 plus court cost each time. He picks up 5 times that in sheds every year! You have one year to turn them in for simple trespass and two years for...

That is correct.

How many Iowa residents on this site own land in Minnesota or Pennsylvania? If so; what are your likes and dislikes about their regulations and hunting?

The very least Colorado could do is let the landowners kids hunt every year on the land they OWN! That would give us grownups an excuse to hunt elk every year. I have grandkids from age 1 to 16.

I don't know what you are getting at Booner. I'm actually a farmer who owns my land and lived in Iowa my whole life. NR's hunting Iowa has zero affect on me! I just get tired of nonresidents landowners trying to change our hunting regulations.

Sounds to me like they have plenty of opportunities to hunt at home then. They'll just have to wait like everyone else to kill a BIG deer.

Don't they have youth seasons in Minnesota? Why does a NR youth need to gain experience hunting Iowa?

A nonresident is a nonresident. No matter what age.

I have a Red 40 and Black 60 I won't even place in the woods. Slow trigger speed, green pics at night, and blurry pics. I have pics of deer 15 yds away at night that are so blurry you can't tell a doe from a spike buck! I sent the Black 60 in for a new replacement that isn't any better than the...

Nope; NR's are buying Iowa land for the sweetcorn!

Then NR's should contribute to fundraiser's in other states. That's what's great about capitalism. No one is forced to participate!

Exactly!! I could post pics of shed horn trespassers from the last three years in a row. Some start already the first week of January!! Last year I kicked a guy off my land from 30 miles away. I will never figure out why someone would want a shed horn from land they can't hunt; unless they...

Great buck, and great looking mount!!

There has been some monsters killed around Winterset in the past. Not all of them went into the record books. I won't go into anymore detail, but welcome to Iowa. You'll love it here!!

So; you are paying for the farming operation or your father? It makes a huge difference in my mind. I grew up on a farm also. The difference is my father was only 40 yrs old when I turned 20. Needless to say I didn't get the family farm, and my father didn't help me buy the farm I have.

And an expensive education that gives you the right to look down your nose at others. Too bad that attitude and education hasn't gotten you farther in life! Legend in your own mind seems to ring a bell here. And it only took 25 yrs.!

There is no we in this equation unless you and your wife are paying the bills on a farming operation. If that was the case; I don't think you'd be asking what the going rate for leasing is in Iowa. Unless of course; you are looking for the going rate to charge! If you knew exactly what it cost...

How many acres do you own and manage? What's your annual crop cost? What kind of taxes and insurance do you pay a year? You might want to walk in a man's shoes before you try telling them what to do!

25 yrs old and got it all figured out. I along with many others have owned land longer than you've been alive! There has been a great deal of change in deer hunting in the last 25 yrs. and there will be a great deal more in the next 25 yrs. May you always know a landowner who puts you above his...

I get a kick out of the hunters who say they will bring morels or deer meat to the landowner for permission. Just where did these items come from in the first place? If you are getting permission solely for that reason; you had better start looking for new farms to hunt. Those landowners aren't...
