They have Jace Elliott on talking about regulations and disease in Iowa. podcast #237

For me it’s bow hunting in January. My favorite time of year to hunt except maybe this year with the warm weather.

I’ve always been one to say the rut is the same time every year with no variance. But this year I think it was truly about a week early. Most of the 3+ year old bucks on my farms were locked down around November 2nd. Anyone else see the same thing, and the real question is why? I personally...

Does Iowa have a purple paint law indicating no trespassing? When I was in Illinois, I always saw purple paint. In Iowa, I have never seen it.

Everyone should listen to this with Jace Elliott. They did a great job interviewing him, and he is a real asset for Iowa hunters.

This is a loaded question some won't like to answer, but......What 2 counties in Iowa would you pick if you were looking at the best odds on a mature monster buck?

We needed rain but almost got too much all at once. It poured all night with heavy rain in Decatur co. Still heavy rain this morning.

I have some bags of corn I did not use this year. Will it be good to use next year if I keep it stored in a dry, cool house all year?

What is this?

Looks like the outfitters are trying to sneak NR party hunting back in this year. Go to the Iowa bowhunters association to get the email list on this. Let's stop it.

Any of the forum members have a booth at this weekend's deer classic? What are you selling?

Has anyone purchased a new bow at Scheels Des Moines recently and had them set it up? How did they do and are you happy at the detail they used in setting it up correctly? I'm getting a new bow and trying to decide whether to buy from Scheels or not.

What would deer hunters like to see changed for the upcoming deer season? Be realistic. My realistic hopes are that all in season bait and supplements are banned. Too many hunters skirt the current law now and it gives an unfair advantage to them. I would also like to see Iowa go to a one buck...

January over grain plots is my favorite time of the whole season to bowhunt..It can be tough getting in and out, and some bucks are broken(or shed this year)......But i love late season. Anyone else?

I have never seen so many flies than I'm seeing this year. My house is a metal building and the flies cover it in the thousands. They get inside the house and die all over the floor..In the garage and outside the building you can hear them, it sounds like bees swarming it's so loud..Anyone else...

I haven't had any measurable rain in the last month (SC Iowa). I have huge cracks in the ground everywhere, grass is dying, and corn is starting to die. You guys getting rain are lucky.

My enlist beans came in sparse due to heavy browsing. I have some broadleafs and grass coming in now. The beans are starting to flower and I wonder if you can spray them with 2, 4-d and/or roundup even though they are flowering? Or is it better just to ride the weeds out at this point?

I had very high hopes for big racks this year with the mild winter and rain but I'm not seeing it. Bucks I expected to gain a lot this year did not. What's everyone else seeing at this point?

Is there anything you can spray on alfalfa to kill grass or small broadleafs? Alfalfa is not round up ready.
