    Harvest Come on Boys!!!

    I'll share here... My Daughter shot a nice mature buck sat night during that cold blast we had. She is in about every activity possible for a young lady her age but we were able to get out during that front. We were hunting over a standing bean plot and were in for a treat. This is a small...

    Osage orange trees

    I have never heard of the living hedge fence before but after a quick read ya it existed across the landscape for over 2 decades until barbed wire hit the scene around 1870. https://www.sj-r.com/story/lifestyle/home-garden/2019/12/02/osage-orange-trees-served-as/2175612007/

    Converting invasives to natives, worth the squeeze?

    Look into your local nrcs office. Equip pays huge to remove, more than 1 payment as well. Usually 3 rounds of removal. The term to use in the office is "brush management" through equip. Takes a good amount of work. Or cut paths and embrace it. I am in the camp id wrather have thick invasive...

    Deer Decoy

    I did the same in 2023 season. Shot a giant over it that night. Totally forgot how much fun the were!!!! N ot a weapon I always use but sometimes in the right conditions can be a blast. I prefer the Montana decoys because you can carry them in your pack. They look so real they sneak up on you...

    Always go with the red one any small engine! As far as size , a good rule of thumb is always buy the biggest they make ! I have one with a blown hydro seal that recently happened.(Probally 10 years of use) I'm not sure of size.However it's probably not the 40 ton.

    Stuck at my cabin (snowstorm ) rant

    I used a dog this year with a real similar situation. It was more about finding the deer than the antlers (as it was a 130type cull buck that's been around for years) I did call in a local guy/dog combo who did awsome by the way and wasn't in it for the $ as he was extremely fair! In my case...

    Cape

    I have weighed a ton after gutting but never before. Out of curiosity what what did the 292 and the 270s weigh after gutting?

    Cape

    Awsome. Do you gut while hanging on the hoist then? perhaps into that wagon?

    Cape

    Just curious I also like to weigh all our deer as well.... Also like to look at the jaw wear , and then follow up by sending in the teeth to matsons lab for centum adging. Are you weighing the deer before guting somehow?

    Giant Deer of Iowa are rapidly becoming a past memory

    I would dissagree with you here. I dont see a landowner coming up with this idea. I also dont see a hunter buying any of these pieces more of an agg / pasture piece. Just crazy to me to think a county would go along with this. I imagine the survey is not going to be cheap and I would not...

    Here ia another reason for Iowa decline. This segmenting is hard to believe any county would go for this. This is ridiculous. Im sure it is the realtors suggestion.

    Bad Neighbor Tips

    Here is the reality of the situation. There is only 1 way to win and that is buy them out. All the other bs you loose. It costs you time/money/energy/and bad use of your free time while killing the enjoyment. If you can't buy then sell and move on. Last option wait them out. I...

    How old?

    Agree old enough to put an arrow in. Exact age who knows. 5+ is my guess. He likes your mowed path. Hes probably wondering if you could add a few more.... would make it easier to sneak up on the does. Did you not take a shot?
