I've sat in hundreds of stands on a ton of farms for 30 plus years day dreaming over and over about what I would do to improve that particular farm to make it into a whitetail Mecca. From stand locations, plots, tree plantings, etc, etc and now I finally have that opportunity to put those dreams...

Well met the forester this morning and started marking trees for a 9 acre timber management deal in a heavy hickory timber. I know people have said cut cut cut but man I was shocked at the number of trees we marked. Really informative stuff working with him. Hopefully get started cutting in the...

IBA Banquet on March 23 at prairie meadows. Speaker is Nick Mundt. Seminars prior to banquet. Lots of good stuff on the raffles and auctions including a muddy blind. Tickets and more info on website. Iowa bowhunters.org.

I'll be really curious to see how many the forester marks next week. My goal is cover and regen on the oaks. would you guys that have done this before recommend hinging, girdling, dropping or all of the above and what percentage of each?

I have similar deal. Very high percentage of hickory, mostly young and not market ready. I'm doing a timber management cut next week. Forrester is coming to mark trees to cut. I have a fair amount of young oak anywhere from seedling to 10-15 foot so releasing them by removing hickory trees...

Anyone ever heard of Snow Goose Commanders outfitters in Kirksville, MO. Buddy bought a 3 day hunt on an auction and I am thinking of tagging along and bringing my boys.

Thanks again Skip. I'm sure there will be many more fires to put out and we are just getting started.

That's what I was thinking. Thanks Skip

Thinking about throwing out some after this storm. Is grass hay or alfalfa better? Add some corn or is that a no no?

Well I planned on winning the lottery this last Monday and that didn't happen so neither is my dream farm ideas. But for the sake of dreaming. The obvious one 10x more land than I have now, huge pond or two, living quarters to eliminate the 45 min drive at 4 am, and tree spade thingy to...

I've not read up that by the so called experts but I have heard that same thing as more of an old wise tail for both coon and coyotes. Increase in litter size is one thing I've always heard.

I don't understand how the coyote population is increasing so drastically the last 5 or so years with the amount of people killing them with thermals. I know trapping is way down and the amount of people running them with dogs is down vs years past but there is no way there isn't more being...

I did finally talk to two different groups in 2 different parts of the state that have seen decent numbers during second gun.

Nice shooting. Great deer congrats

I feel like anything here we need to be proactive in addressing this with our DNR biologists and voicing these concerns. The EHD death reports that come out are a pretty small percentage of what is actually reported. I visit with multiple groups from all over the state and it's been very...

Congrats. Stud deer.
