I watched a small 8 pt chase a doe hard for about 30 min on Monday in Mills Co. I am not sure if she was ready or he was just getting a head start.

To me the more direct violation in the video is that the blind did not appear to have the required orange on the outside. I hope this does not overshadow what was accomplished here, but after hearing some of the stories about the IDNR it would not surprise me.

There is a little thing called discretion, and CO are allowed by law to use it. Again I would be hard pressed to believe a CO confiscated someones personal property based off pictures on Facebook alone. I do not doubt the posters story , but I also believe there is probably more to the story.

That is the same thing I was thinking, but maybe the CO's use common sense in KS.

There are so many pics I see where the tag is not visible, it makes it hard for me to believe the DNR could legally confiscate someones deer and bow based off of Facebook pictures, if that is the only evidence they have. If this is the case there was probably more to the story, like when they...

I would have a hard time believing that the DNR would take their buck and bow just because they had pictures taken before they tagged the animal, if they tagged it soon after or before the DNR contacted them, the DNR would have a hard time proving when the deer was tagged. All the hunter would...

You are a better man than me, as I am not sure I could have passed him up. He will be a giant if he makes it to next year. Great Video.

I sent you a pm about these. Thanks Steve

Lets face it guys we live in a time where money talks, and that is exactly how you implement change. The first step is to develop common goals that even the most uninformed outdoors men will get behind. The problem is a lot of hunters are divided on the deer numbers debate, be it because of...

How about 1. switch the celebrity tags to NR military or NR Youth. 2. have the DNR come up with a Land Management Program that land owners could enroll in that would adjust quotas to health numbers. Kind of like CRP programs for deer. 3. set restrictions on antler sizes (14" inside spread or...

It is simple if you want to see bigger more mature bucks then you need to advocate for size restrictions on bucks so all the bucks that should be given time to grow do not get shot at the end of the year. Also if you are seeing 10 does to every buck then your buck to doe ratio is way off. The...

If people are really concerned with deer/buck quality in Iowa they will push for size limits on bucks. That would really put a damper on the "brown and down" mentality during the shot gunning seasons, but it would give your young bucks a chance to mature.

How many of you guys or gals lease hunting land? I am looking to lease some land for next year. I Live in Glenwood which is just South of Council Bluffs, and would love to lease some land within a hour or so I could put up some permanent blinds to hunt with my kids in. I have found a few...

Sorry I do not want to start a debate, so my tip is, wait for the deer to stop moving before you shot, so you can make the best shot possible.

I was always taught bow or gun hunting, if you can't take an responsible/ethical shot, then you owe it to the animal, and the people you are hunting with to Not Take the Shot. Now you can be the judge as to if shooting at a moving target with single projectile not knowing where it is going to...

This is not a one size fits all issue. The truth is there are some areas of the state that needs to decrease the doe population, as well as there are portions of the sate that could hold off from taking doe's for a year or two. In order to have a healthy deer heard you need adequate food, water...

That is a great story, and the relief knowing you did not lose the deer you thought you lost has to be awesome!!! Congrats!

You are correct it is his right to speak his mind just like it is our right to disagree with him. To me it is poor taste to use a tragedy such as this to push bias opinions on NFL viewers most of which are pro 2nd amendment.

The thing I find interesting in this whole mess is, why would he use Monday Night Football as a platform to spew this non sense. My opinion is NBC is owned by GE and we all know GE is real tight with the Obama administration, and as the famous words of Rahm Emanual "never let a crisis go to...
