I took my 6 year old son out for the first time Saturday. He has a youth 20 gauge remigton 870 with an 18 inch barrel. He has been practicing shooting pop bottles a lot. No luck on the morning sit but in the evening we had a group of 8 jakes come by. I asked him if he wanted a jake or if he...

Hard to top some of these recent posts lately! Thanks for all the cool stories posted so far. I had a great season turkey hunting as well. Started in Kansas with a decapitation of a tom with a Rage broadhead. Sorry for the grusome harvest photo, as anyone knows it is always the ultimate goal of...

I just got back from a 10 day hunting safari in South Africa with my brother in law. It was an unbeleivable hunt and adventure. Here are a few of our pictures.

Not exactly what I was looking for Saturday morning but it was still exciting! Coyotes do not like 2 bladed rages.

I turkey hunted 1st season in iowa with no luck. It was very frustrating, I heard very little gobbeling and only saw a few hens. I think it was a little early in my area and I think numbers are down a bit. We were planning on going to South Dakota over the weekend to hunt merriams and they...

Antelope taken near Moorecroft, WY. 285 yard shot while he was laying down! My elk taken at 12,000 feet elevation near Dubois. Spotted him 2.5 miles away and put a 4.5 hour stalk on him to get to 190 yards. After three years of bow hunting with nothing to show I finally closed the...

I was fortunate enough to call in a tom yesterday morning and manged to close the deal. He came in from over 300 yards across a bean field, really put on a show over the course of 30 minutes. After I shot him at 25 yards I went and checked his beard, it was just over 10 inches and I guessed him...

Fellow IowaWhitetail member Doob and his brother were nice enough to invite me and a buddy from Boone to a late season muzzy hunt this weekend. We had a blast and killed some nice deer! My buck came out on a drive on Sunday at 150 yards on the run and I missed him. Monday we did the same...

I spent the last 2 weekends turkey hunting. 2 Weeks ago went out to South Dakota and shot a jake in some of the worst hunting conditions possible. He came into the decoys during a blizzard, got 6 inches where I was at, so I decided to take him. Fast forward to this past weekend and I took a...

My Dad got a call last Tuesday from a friend of his that guides deer hunts in Canada. He had 2 cancellations so we decided to go. I left Thanksgiving morning at 8AM (I was supposed to be having dinner at my in-laws) and headed north. We ran into a bad blizzard in Canada and didn't arrive...

Went out to South Dakota with my brother-in-law a couple weekends ago. Shot my first Miriam, stepped on a 3 foot rattle snake, found a shed and found 4 nice dead bucks. They have been batteling blue tongue disease. It was a great time.

When do most of you guys purchase your licenses? I went in yesterday to get a tag for today and found the quota was full. I decided to get a late season antlerless tag instead and found the quotas for all my surrounding counties are full! The store clerk made the comment that a lot of guys...

Island Stalker & I with our 3rd season turkeys and my new chocolate lab Coby.

Has anyone had much success with making drives for turkeys or taken one in flight? I know it's not as exciting as calling one in but I was just curious.

Came from a friend in NE IA. 14 tags, 3 days, 1 square mile. These were all shot in Allamakee County Iowa (Northeast Corner of Iowa).
