So I'm guessing this buck is 3.5-4.5 and not the best genetics. What do you guys think?

http://my.chicagotribune.com/#section/-1/article/p2p-73663214/ I was reading CBS news last night about the shooting in Conn., which is/ was horrifying. A 'related article' came up saying that a federal court ruled that Illinois concealed carry ban is unconstitutional and Illinois law makers...

Hey guys, I'm looking to get a bedliner put on my truck soon. I was thinking line x but I can't find any reviews for the dealer in Des Moines. I think the dealer is called American toppers or something like that. Has anyone used them? I also called another dealer called t&t line X out of...

A little background... So my lease consists of 100 acres of CRP, with wooded fencerows around the outside. My buddy and I ran trail cameras since August and we didn't catch many shooters. One week in October, it got down in the 20's a few nights, and we caught two shooters. We hunted all bow...

I've kind of been waiting for someone to ask, but it hasn't happened yet. So which season is most likely to produce an opportunity for a nice buck if I am stand hunting? This will be my first iowa shotgun season and I'm not sure if I'd rather hunt shotgun 1 or 2. Which has better action...

I took three days of vacation this week, so I could come home to Indiana and spend some time hunting and some extra time with my family. I was hunting with my best friend this past saturday evening on his property. He put me in an area with a lot of deer, but no stands or good ground positions...

Well I'm going to be hunting in some different places and I figured I could use a more portable setup. I bought the alpha ii and 3 climbing sticks on eBay for $360. Everything is brand new.

If you can't tell from the title, I'm still a little excited. This is my first Iowa buck. Second buck with a bow and probably my biggest bow buck. Could be close to last year's inch wise. Last night I made a post about urban hunting, which I'll quote below. Anyway, I saw this buck last night...

Hey guys, So I have a story, and I'd love to get some tips. I got my buddy into hunting this fall, kinda. He bought a bow and practices with me, but he doesn't have his hunter ED yet so he cant kill anything. Anyway, he has about 8 acres of woods just on the outskirts of Des Moines, just...

Hey guys, I have attached a picture of my one of my hunting spots. I am trying to figure out how to set up for the wind. My question is: How does wind flow around creeks that are about 15 feet lower than the surrounding land aka the banks are 15 feet high? If I have a south wind, will my scent...

Hi everyone, I've been reading here for a while, but just now making my first post. I've been kind of struggling to find some decent hunting property in Polk county. I just moved to iowa from Indiana in May. I do have some ground available in Marion county but that's going to be a weekend only...
