I think it might be slowing down but the big ones are cruising more in my area. Last night saw a nice 8 point make a scrape and then some does came in to check it out and then right before dark the buck I been watching came in to about 50 yards and then no further. Going to try again this afternoon.
Re: Guy kills five hunters over a hunting dispute.
You know I was mad when I found a 16 year old kid in my stand a few weeks ago but never thought about shooting him. This is absolutely the craziest thing I have ever heard. Thoughts and prayers for the families.
3 Beards, that is definitely a feral hog. Feral hogs are common in the south and it takes a domestic hog one litter in the wild to become feral. Any more questions just holler.
Threebeards your avatar makes you look like a bit of a red neck. Looks like from the map shown last nite red necks rule the US. The south will rise again.
Urine would not smell that different like manure does. Urine is water waste that circulates through the body. Manure is the breakdown of the actual foods, grasses, grains that are eaten in that area. So I do think that manures will smell different but the urine will not unless the farmer is...
If you hunt in these counties then you better hope that they do not start the bounties cause it will really hurt your deer hunting. People will start coming in from over states such as OK, AR, and even MO. They will bring in dogs that will chase these cats and any other wildlife in the area. You...
The corn was less than 20 yards from the stand. There was 3 piles of about 20 pounds in each pile. I bet with the rain it all got soaked. To bad for the illegals. I am going out this afternoon to take the stand down. Well let you know if anyone is there.
Okay now it gets better. I went to there location about noon today and found out they have been feeding corn all over the area around their stand. I think I will call DNR. Isn't it illegal to bait in Iowa. I just moved here so be gentle.
Why does everyone get so freaked out by the mountain lion sightings. They are all over my old hunting grounds in Oklahoma. I have pictures if you would like to see them.
I was hunting the 200 acres of private land I manage for a man this evening. I was sitting there and about 6 a doe comes full speed under my tree and behind her was an average 6 pointer. They were in full sprint so I thought something was chasing them. Well about an hour later I heard voices...
I found this thread on another board. It just goes to show you that you should ALWAYS wear your FULL Body harness while climbing as well as when you are hunting. I don't blame the stand so much as the hunter, any product can fail and we all have loved ones that need us around. Do 5 shot a favor...
I needed advice not a lecture about shot percentages or whether to wait for a better shot. I guess that is what I get for becoming involved on this forum. i have heard alot of people making this shot but I guess I am not an expert nor do I claim to be.
Oh by the way I found the buck around noon...
First off, I am new to Iowa and can't believe the size of the deer. Always wanted the chance to hunt here and now I live here isn't that the best.
Ok, tonite I shot a very nice buck at about 10 yards. I shot him through the middle of the shoulders from the top. I have shot several deer from...
