Since it's a thread asking for input on management decisions, I don't think he'll mine.;) You are referring to studies that do not have the age structure that he is trying to acheive. With common hunting pressure most areas of the country have age structures similar to that in those studies...

You're right, you can't tell what does are bred by what bucks, but statistically it makes more sense to kill them before the breeding season and allow the dominate bucks (higher scoring in theory) breed a higher percentage of the does. This also helps shorten the rut by allowing a higher...

A mature dominate buck is going to breed a certain number of does. If you kill your does before the breeding begins, all of his offspring will be born the following spring. If you kill does after breeding, you may kill off some of his offspring. This theory works assuming in nature that the...

I'll buy that land sight unseen for the same price they paid in the '80s. It's worth 2-5(maybe more) times what they paid for it.

Live long enough and you will. Nothing stays the same forever. Set your mind to it and you can accomplish anything in life!

I've got two 3-legged does on my farm. One of them has nothing on one side, no stub, no nothing. It looks like her leg was surgically removed at the shoulder. She's at least 7 years old now and healthy as can be. Raises a fawn every year. The other one has a deformed leg on one side. Must...

I use something similar that Cabelas used to sell. Mine actually has a 3 foot long track that the decoy moves accross and then turns around at the end. Motion works awesome for pulling in decoy shy birds! I've killed more birds with motion decoys than I have with my calls for sure.

I'm guessing the teeth may fall out?

I'd doze off and wake up and shoot that thing for sure!

Please don't hide them in a seperate forum. Keep them out where everyone will see them.

Clearly, you don't own land, or you would think these posts are a great thing!

Score? Gross and net...well its just gross.

:confused:

The only thing that has destroyed the deer herd in those states is the DNR. CWD will have very little impact if left to run it's course.

Guess what, next year he'll just leave 50 acres of standing crops. This bill won't solve your "problem" with what the outfitter is accomplishing.

Looks like the same information that people haven't believed in the past. And I still don't believe this makes it any easier for a CO to ticket someone. The fact of the matter is you still have to catch them in the act. If anything this will eat up a lot of their time, because there are...

So your saying there is no room for improvement and that adding minerals to a deer's diet is a waste of time and money? There are a lot of livestock farmers in Iowa wasting millions of dollars then.

How would you prove who put it there? Not trying to be arguementative with you. I just don't think this bill was created for the reasons you are suggesting. It wouldn't make many things easier for a CO, but it would take a lot of satisfaction and enjoyment away from otherwise honest law...

This law wouldn't change a thing in the scenario you were refering to. You still have to catch a person and prove they put the corn there. As the story was told, they never saw a person there. Adding more laws is rarely the answer. Its that kind or rational that people use to support...

That would be illegal. Food or mineral in front of a camera is not illegal, trying to hunt deer on their way to that location is illegal. Completely up to the CO if he thinks you are "hunting" over the food or mineral.
