It really won't make a huge difference. The notched discs seem to tear up the ground a little easier but the round ones will do about as good. The key is to getting enough weight on top of the disc to help it dig in. Cinder blocks or big rocks or whatever you can find to add about 100 lbs or...

I agree with you mplane and thought the same exact thing. I worried I was one of the few that thought that way and didn't want to sound "elitist" either like you say. Especially in today's world, it seems like people are looking for the quick fix and don't want to work hard and expect things...

Love how this guy thinks. I'd do the same and also echo Sligh's recommendation of focusing more on targeting poachers.

I would prefer not to allow crossbows for multiple reasons. I think they serve their purpose right now for disabled and elderly people that need them. And personally, having shot my grandpa's (who bowhunted for 40 years prior to having some serious back problems at age 71) I don't know why...

Is there an advantage to using trophy rock versus a livestock mineral block? Just curious if a guy pays more for the brand than what it actually is or not?

You probably have but put it on Craigslist and it will sell really fast. Sold my DXT in one day.

I thought we were talking about the need for late antlerless doe season not purely shed bucks or the traditional Iowa seasons which includes late muzzie... Shooting shed bucks happens...happens to everyone...not a huge deal but something I don't try to personally do if I can help it. If it...

I have shot the berretta .40 you are talking about. Its a great gun no doubt. You will be happy with it. Of all the handguns I've used/shot/owned...by far the best one is the Springfield XDM line which you can get in 9, .40, or .45. I've personally witnessed 5 people shoot a .45 XDM in the...

Yes farmers want them all dead and gone but that doesn't mean you still don't have the right to your own opinions. You can still support the fact that this season has served its purpose to reduce the state's deer herd and want to do away with the late season. If there is no late rifle doe...

All kinds of discs out there to do the job. If you are doing small plots and also need to get back into the woods a ways this has been the best option for me. Its a king cutter and is narrower than most so it makes weaving through wooded areas a bit easier. Easy to use and works great for me...

Could a person create better/thicker bedding habitat by burning the area you were doing edge feathering in by burning it first then throwing some sort of seed down and then hinging trees? Or would the seed not really matter? If it would help to put seed down, what would you suggest to create...

I learned the benefit of not overhunting your area. In prior years, I've always taken off a week in between the 1st and 2nd weekends of November and hunted 9 days straight plus every weekend before and after that I was able. This year was different as my son was born so with that...

I do see your point and can appreciate the fact that people enjoy it. I too have enjoyed it in prior years but no longer do it for many reasons but mostly because the levels to me are fine if not a little low for what I prefer...just my opinion...and from reading I'm not the minority. Is that...

Would work great, yes

So they have other priorities but the ONLY week they can get out is late doe with a rifle...not the other 3.5 months so they can shoot one to feed their family? It would be just as simple to go out and shoot a deer for meat during early muzzeloader, shotgun, or late muzzleloader...plenty of...

Thats a whole other debate like Ford and Chevy but I'll give you my 2 cents. I've owned Honda, Polaris, Kawasaki, and Can-Ams. Personally, for the money I prefer the Kawasaki Brute Force or older Prairie 650 or bigger. But honestly all have been good to me. If not a Kawasaki I prefer a...

That's a decent price and will get you by for sure. Be perfect for seeding, spraying, stands, and dragging a harrow. If you are going to work it by pulling disc's and cultipackers or decent sized trees you will be pretty hard on the engine and it won't be the power you are looking for. I've...

If you want to ensure your opportunity to shoot a mature buck in years to come is less and less and that is your personal goal then by all means go for it. Doesn't really hurt me at all.

I don't like the late doe season at all and hope it goes away soon! Lots of good points in this thread. There will always be the few that want to shoot just to shoot a deer no matter what it is. We will never stop that and to each their own. Someday when they shoot most the deer in their...

It doesn't get any better than that! Congrats to you and your dad on a memory of a lifetime!
