I have been pulling cards since April, usually keep a eye on my Toms I am hunting and now I am on to some bucks for this fall. Following the growth they take on is amazing! Here is an up and comer, hill buck in western Iowa.

As I type, the state track meet is into its second day, it's hard for me not to attend and actually officiate but I promised myself I would retire after 15 years and I did so back to turkey hunting. For me it's been the right decision. The time it took all spring totally took away from my time...

Here is my bow buck for 2015, shot him on Halloween night. He and I had a lot of fun grunting at each other, Stubs started to snort wheeze at me, six different times.Finally he came in, hair standing up on his back at 20 yards. Schafer Silvertip did it this year with a two bladed Zwickey. Sorry...

Coyote Trail/ CALIFORNIA VS TEXAS CALIFORNIA: The Governor of California is jogging with his dog along a nature trail. A coyote jumps out and attacks the Governor's dog, then bites the Governor. The Governor starts to intervene, but reflects upon the movie "Bambi" and then...

I honestly think trail cameras don't like photographers and vice versa. My cameras were all froze and I am too tight to pay a lot if money for good ones so I just do it the old fashion way and freeze my butt off holding my Nikon close keeping it warm and snap pictures. Got between two good...

Could have our hands full but you got to cheer them on! Go Hawks!

Anybody get some good hunting stuff under the tree? I didn't get crap, but my folks did get the old trusty Bass Pro card and some cash. Should be some good deals this week!

Was in deep SW Iowa yesterday and EHD as many have said has taken it's toll. I have personally watched it over in the Loess Hills west of me and it's sad. So, my question follows the dry discussion, how does one get fresh water to animals in the wild? I see two different issues and that is...

Time to start talking about low deer numbers and who our contacts are at the state. My time on the NRC helps me understand some of the process but is anyone else capable of updating us on where we are at and where we need to go biologically and then how we can get a say politically?

Crazy little video, love the stuff myself, just goes to show...practice, practice and more practice. http://youtu.be/2zGnxeSbb3g

Reading some of the dialog today and wanting to pass on some sense of organization that has ideals and a sense of code, here you go. After 31 years of bowhunting I decided to rejoin the Pope and Young Club this year,mostly for my own self and how I want to be as a bow hunter but to teach my...

Old adage we say where I am from, " it's not how you start the season, it's how you finish the season" and so let me be the first to say congratulations to the Hawkeye football team and staff! Way to go into Lincoln and take care of business with class and dignity! Nice win against Michigan too...

Jake, the rancher, went one day To fix a distant fence. The wind was cold and gusty And the clouds rolled gray and dense. As he pounded the last staples in And gathered tools to go, The temperature had fallen, And snow began to blow. When he finally reached his pickup, He felt a heavy heart...

I am going to edit this old post and see if we can get some dialog started about the extremely low number of deer taken this year as a result if EHD ravishing the herd in several areas of the state if not the entire state. It's been a few years since I have personally gotten involved but the...

A friend of mine just fell 20 feet, his harness broke. His nickname his Full Throttle ( Nyles ), he is a horse, played football for Indiana University. He is a great hunter and knows his stuff. It can happen to anyone. Heading to the hospital now, he broke his pelvis, lucky to be alive! If you...

This week and next should be fantastic for hunting the beautiful Iowa whitetail and for those that didn't know or didn't pick-up on the fact I do like to take their pictures. Very soon I will cover most of South West Iowa and work my way east into South Central and then South East Iowa. Northern...

I wasn't quite ready to be done yet but this guy came by last night and I had to let an arrow fly... Let me back up, he was under me at 10 yards, it was a cool quiet evening at 6:45 pm and he knew something was wrong! He back up and up and I couldn't see him through all the damn leaves. All of...
