Re: Reducing your scent before and while hunting!! oh yeah i dont doubt some of it is from bacteria, but think of all the things you come in contact with. i wash down or use scent blocker wipes every time before i go out, but that isnt going to do jack for the stuff you're touching on your way...

My family owns a lumber/logging business and does some work in buying/selling properties so I guess i know a bit about this. The reason timbered land values are down is probably due to the poor housing market. Because of the huge mess people got into with subprime lending and the housing...

this guy sounds vaguely similar to another "TRMichels" on huntingnet.com that was raising hell about charcoal suits and pushing the anti-bacterial stuff hard. That "TRMichels" turned out not to be the real one. just a heads up guys and as a side note, i dont buy into the whole bacterial thing...

I think you'll be alright. im going out this weekend to put up a double bull and a hang on on a killer spot i just found while i was walking our farm the other day. i might even end up hunting the set im hanging in two weeks, i honeslty don't think the deer mind that much. For me, its not so...

[ QUOTE ] I LIVE IN WEST CENTRAL ILLINOIS AND THE FARMERS AROUND HERE ARE DONE WITH CORN AND PROBABLY 50% DONE WITH THE BEANS.THE FARM I HUNT ON IS DONE WITH BOTH.I WENT IN TODAY AND SCRATCHED OUT A COUPLE OF SPOTS IN THE BEAN STUBBLE TODAY AND BROADCAST SOME GREEN PATCH PLUS.NOW I'M PRAYING FOR...

I just heard today that a guy from around here in Clayton County took his 12 year old daughter out on the youth hunt and she bagged a 172" 8 pointer on the farm next to ours. 14" G-2's and 28" main beams is what I heard. If i find some pictures ill get them up. I know the girl's dad pretty...

I was at a party last night and some girl from Guttenburg was telling me about him and we saw him on TV, sounds like a sweet deal for him

that looks like a killer rut set. I might have to take some pics when i hang the last of my stands, but its tough; I have 17 sets up right now and probably 3 or 4 going up this weekend for some back up spots on our 640 acre farm.

Mid 140's

I found two saturday when i was out checking sets, defintely has me pumped for october. The sign is appearing more and more, but it won't be really thick for another week or two.

We're in the same boat. We leased a farm about 45 mins from my house and the locals around there ruined our gun season. They were tresspassing on opening morning and claiming they had permission and one guy even called the landowner a few weeks ago saying my dad's timber company that logged it...

just got mine saturday also. about time. i was starting to get worried

Re: Looks official to me... Drury Switched to PSE Saturday I'm doing some film work for a friend for Wisconsin's bow opener since im not hunting over here this year and They have a crew from Drury hunting their lease this fall and they're up this weekend so I'll get the scoop.

yeah i was thinking more off the top of my head and realized after i posted it that it really wouldnt change the cheaters, since they're already pretty well set in their ways. the more i think about it, its really an enforcement issue. Maybe it's just because I dont hear about it or its not...

Ok, it's an improvement over the old system, but honestly, iowa's system of reporting is pretty crappy. you can't get accurate counts with this system. i know of too many people who cheat the system, dont report deer, etc because the DNR isnt there for enforcement. What's wrong with just copying...

our farm in Clayton/Allamakee county has a pretty good sized creek running through it, it dumps into the yellow river just off our property and that hits the Miss a mile downstream. So it sees a lot of water. 3 weeks or so ago when we got 8 inches the place looked like the moon from all the...

thats a pretty sick chopper. I wanna say S&S, the company who made that, is in or near the same town as Mathew's..Mathews is in Sparta, i think S&S might be there too, or somewhere close by, prolly why they used mathews in it

i dont really buy into the whole moon stuff, the rut is triggered by decreasing light levels, not all this moon hocus pocus. regardless of hte moon, you're probably money if you're hunting nov. 5-12. should be peak rutting conditions in iowa judging by past experience

Fill my Iowa with one of two bucks im hunting, a giant B&C 10 point or a 6X6 with a a few stickers that i have sheds and pictures from last year of, as well as pictures this year.

Re: need some info i dunno where that's at exactly, what region or town are you moving to? tell me that and i can probably help you.
