Hello Ladies and Gentlemen Hunters, I was reading on another Iowa Hunting sight, that the rumor is out that sometime in the future Iowa residents may have to go into a lottery for buck tags. any truth to that? Also have read and heard about the problem with too many deer in Iowa. Everywhere I read, "KILL THE DOES", Kill more, Kill more.Well just thought I'd give you a perspective from N. Mich where I live/hunt. Few yrs ago our DNR decided we had too many Doe. Gave out Doe a day tags to anyone. Button bucks can be shot on antlerless tags too. There was a "Slaughter!" Does, fawns, laying in ditches,10 fawns on deers poles.DNR used TB scare to prompt this action.Only recently, admitted Car Insurance pressures main reason. Now we are lucky to have 3 or 4 deerper mile up here.I know Iowa residents are probably more conscientious,but just a word of caution. Does do carry the future in them. Thanks.
