I have to apologize..I can't help my overbearing sense of sarcasm. None the less there isn't probably going to be an easy answer to this question. I just had to try to stoke the fire. Seriously one of these days when my rugrats get old enough I may actually have enough money to go out of...

I guess this should be a problem for archery hunting but I thought that most out of state shotgunners already had it figured out? You know, get a doe only non resident tag and then party hunt with at least five good friends who's wives hunt, ha.ha..., and then the problem is solved right? Not...

I'm not knocking Deer Management, but in many cases these areas do attract many deep pocket hunters. In your case you must be pretty generous. If you run out of friends who can follow rules my hunting partner and I can give it a shot for you. I like to shoot does when necessary but my tag...

I really think I am just starting to hate NASCAR in general. Car of tommorow, heck it has been around since yesterday, they just called it IROC. As far as Earnhardt leaving, they ought to sell a lot of truck decals at the next classic! Redneck Revenue!!!!! Fortunately I will always remain...

The sad part is lease or no lease you probably aren't going to go and just get "free" permission to hunt where these people hunt anyway. Most good deer territory (200" deer type) is pretty well sacred ground. Ever take a Sunday drive south and east of Albia? You can't drive 200 yards without...

Okay, I haven't seen anyone posting about what the birds are doing yet. I have been out the past two days and the gobbling has been "alright". I haven't had any toms that are really running to a call. I have seen a ton of hens out and about in the CRP. Looks like nesting activity to me? Is...

You guys are hillarious! Great taste though...... You've got to wonder what it is like to be Lee and walk around with her at a place like the classic. She was probably looking at you funny because you were probably about the 100th guy to do it that day!

I just got done putting together my real feather fan for the new B-mobile fan. I think the wife was mad at me for borrowing the hot glue gun... Anyhow I can't hardly wait to try this thing out! Heck, even if it doesn't make the turkeys come running it will be hours of fun just watching the...

Thanks for your input. I see next years is going to be in Atlanta and I am more then likely not be able to go this year. My wife and I honeymooned in Nashville and visited the Opryland Hotel so I shouldn't have any problems combining some Hunting Business with some Marriage pleasure. She...

Granted I know that I would probably enjoy this event since I have never gone to it before. I just thought maybe I would be lucky enough to find somebody who could put their two cents in on what the convention is really like. Thanks for any input. Sean

Re: Land Leased by a IW Member It's all about supply and demand. The funny thing is how will we look at leasing ground 20 years from now? Also why is it okay for us to say it is wrong for someone to lease ground in Iowa when "most" of us would pay an outfitter out of state for an Elk hunt in...

Sorry, I was bass acwkards on that one. None the less at least someone actually did get replaced.....right? ha,ha

Okay, so we are now hearing that there is only going to be like 150,000 deer harvested in Iowa this year according to the news. How can we tell what this means? Does this mean the old "crystal ball" method of tallying deer kills was just that bad or is the new system just that good? If Willy...

I don't disagree that it is important to support your local stores to make purchases. I will say one thing about ebay. I will not buy an item from anyone on ebay unless it is at least at a 30% discount from retail. The biggest reason being the liablility factors involved with making a "blind"...

I too am from Oskaloosa. The places I have gone to in the past are Ulrich's in Pella, Dayton Meat's in Malcom on the interstate, and Leighton Locker. All seem to have their own talents depending on what you get. I will say one thing that sells me and that is vacuum sealing. Leighton is the...

Some day when I win the lottery I will become a trophy hunter! How much does Pope and Young and the Boone and Crockett charge to become a member? Ha,Ha....

I figure this will happen just after the state starts allowing us to shoot these nuisance deer two for the price of one tag...ha,ha.. Great idea but the only problem is that it you are using common sense. Which in gov't and business doesn't equal profits. Just look at the DNR. Department of...

I would be willing to extend the offer to all farmers. So I would be willing to do my part to help. Gee it's kind of funny because here in South Eastern Iowa where there tends to be a lot of deer you have to actually pay to play????

Everything I have read in this post is true to my knowledge. I have seen everything from all out chasing this week to there being does who still are bunched up and act like nothing is happening. I would guess that by this weekend it will be flat out crazy! Boy am I glad I am on vacation the...

Better yet! Buy your self a video camera and change your last name to Drury and then the state will graciously give you the covetted Governer's Tag as well! Of course you may have to may have to do some buck growls to prove that you are a true Drury! Grr Baby! Very Grrrrrr!
