    Poll question #14: smokeless muzzleloaders

    Before the straight wall change all of my. Gun hunting was done blithe a smokeless MZ. I think a good compromise would be to ban scopes during the early and last Mz seasons. With this change the AR pistol scam could remain the same.

    Poll Question #13: Drones

    The only advantage to the resource I can see is a buck recovered and tagged is one less possibly being shot. On a marginally shot deer it is legal to look for 30 minutes call it “Lost” and go try to shoot another one. Using the Drone to recover in this instance would be the better outcome. The...

    Pro’s and con’s of selling without doing a 1031

    The other part is the amount of debt you have on the property. To avoid taxes in a 1031 you would need to spend at least the amount of the sold farm. This is often difficult to find an exact dollar for dollar replacement. This leads to creating more debt. The only other strategy to consider is...

    Poll Question #2: Thermal Coyote hunting

    I do trap some myself so the prime fur market makes some sense to me, except if that is the motivating factor then it may make sense to close the coyote season other times of the year. Trapping seasons have been managed this way for years.

    Poll Question #2: Thermal Coyote hunting

    I would be all for closing the season for the use of thermal scopes 9/1/-12/31. Make it illegal to possess in the field during this period. If this makes some traction I will go to the Capital in support for sure.

    Poll Question #7: Would you support ending all seasons by December 31?

    Sounds good to me i would also shorten youth season somewhat. With all the current early shedding i am 100% all deer hunting on 12/31

    Giant Deer of Iowa are rapidly becoming a past memory

    To think keeping the same Seasons, limits and weapons is going to some how magicily improve the declining condition is the definition of insanity. What really is the risk of going to one buck.

    2025 CRP PAYMENTS

    The problem is the whole Goverment AG program need to be redone. I would like to know the cost to the taxpayer for the average acre of farmed land to the tax payer vs that same acre in Crp. With the projected subsidies being rolled out now and the crop insurance premium payments the crop acres...

    Walnut buyers?

    I will get a list together and get some names and numbers with their permission. Not as simple as it should be, the end buyers are different for the different grades. The end user that buys the Veneer buy cut logs not trees. Most projects will only have a small percent Veneer the rest will be...

    Giant Deer of Iowa are rapidly becoming a past memory

    The lower population issue is the root cause for most of the issues we have. The problem is our Buck harvest has remained stable with about half the Deer numbers we had 20 years ago. This is simple math that the Buck age structure will be trend downward. If people wont consider reducing...

    Flail mower on standing corn?

    They will do a great job on corn residue. Need to be run lower than the guy in the video. Also a tiller set shallow will do the same thing. The one in the video is way more complicated than needed a simple 3 point one works fine

    Flail mower on standing corn?

    Thats a good point about destroying crops for an Insurance claim we have had to do that also . Had the field appraised then we mowed it to destroy it Crop insurance came back checked it could not be harvested they paid the Guarantee minus the 5-6 bu appraisal .

    Latest from my FSA office as of Dec 1

    Not sure there is a signup of any kind right now. All the offices seem way behind on the work they have. Seems to me CRP of any kind is not a priority right now with this administration.

    Flail mower on standing corn?

    My guess is it would work great. As far as legal i would guess the same as mowing corn. Large flail mowers were pretty common one common brand was a side winder .Now seems most just run stalks down with a Turbo till or something similar.

    Bad Neighbor Tips

    The High fence is the nuclear option but if he is over the line with his out house and threatening then it may be time. To start with make a road or trail along the fence on your side. Then build a few 100 yards of the high fence near there stands. Then discuss them removing the stands.

    Management/cull buck identification question

    That buck would be a cull buck for sure . Not saying you are going to change genetics but may make space for something better

    Giant Deer of Iowa are rapidly becoming a past memory

    Things are changing for sure in Iowa. Things like EHD are an issue but we cannot control that currently. I dont think they would be able to ban trail cameras or most of the increase in technology once people get used to using them. Another part that seems to be missed is many of the truly big...
