Im relatively new to hunting. I moved to Iowa from Louisiana 2 years ago and prior to that I never had much hunting time with my job. My experience prior to taking up bow hunting last year was sniping does 300yrds out with a high powered rifle. I must say bow hunting is much more of a rush. I...
There I was 18 yards from the biggest buck Ive ever seen in a stand and my first archery deer. I'm guessing 150 class or pretty close. I pulled back, lined up my sites and let her fly. Right over the top. clean miss:mad:. I couldnt believe it. Guess I can mark it down as a learning experience...
I bought it the other day and tried it Saturday morning. I had deer come from three different directions and never got winded. I don't use carbon clothes but im anal in my prep. Can't say if its the wonder scent cover but I did have a old doe and a bobcat approach my stand from down wind. It has...
Saw 5 does and a bobcat in the am. Zip this afternoon. Probably cause of the hunting pressure this morning around my evening stand. That's how it is on public land though. Gonna get at em again in the morning. Probably gonna skip the evening tomorrow.

Saw 5 does and a bobcat this morning. Thought the first doe busted me when she started blowing at me. I was pissed. Then the squirrels started going nuts. After listening to them yap and the does snorting, I looked over and saw a bobcat about 50 yards away. Never saw one before. After it vacated...
Leaving at lunch and heading to the range for some video shooting. Cant really decide which stand I wanna hunt so Im gonna slip in and grab a camera around 9 tonight after I know they have left for the fields. If I see what I want thats where I'm going. If not I'm heading to a big groups of oaks...
I dont think there is a ton of deer in the area, what do you think would be a good amount? I only wanted to leave a spot big enough to shot the entire strech with a bow. Should I opt for a half acre? I didnt want to drop 600 buck for a full acre which is about what an acre is worth with current...
Just curious. What is your opinion on the two. Do deer perfer beans or corn. I have a buddy of mine who has a small farm in plymouth county that was planted to beans this year. I have alot of doe pics going to and from the beans, but I havent gotten a picture of a buck. I was out at the farm...
I wake up this morning and the 3d target in my backyard got his a## whopped. The antlers were knocked off and the legs were disconnected as well. Im guessing a buck came by and decided he didnt like the way my target was talkin smack. Just a little bit of humor to brighten the day. Too bad I...
Went out Saturday morning and my little girl didnt make it very long before she decided she had to pee. Go figure lol. Maybe we will have better luck this weekend. We did see one doe but only her head and neck. We let her walk.
Getting ready for youth season this weekend. Got the ground blind setup a few days ago and cant wait to take my daughter out for her first deer hunt. She has been out scouting with me and she is super excited. Tomorrow morning cant get here fast enough.
I wasent really sure what leases go for around here. Thanks for the info. I am going to run an ad in the paper here in Sioux City and see if I get some response. It would be great to find it for free by knocking doors, but I just figured land owners get hammered with that stuff everyday and...
I am looking for some private ground to hunt. I come from the south and I am use to paying for hutning leases/clubs. I posted on craigslist looking for a farmer that would want to lease his ground but got nothing. Any suggestions? Whats the best way to go about securing private ground to hunt? I...
Thats awesome. Seemd there are still a few good people in this crazy world. I would love to take my little girl hunting but she is only 5. What age did you guys start taking your kids in the woods. What age do they have to be to take advantage of youth season?
