I want to acknowledge on here my appreciation for a company that stands behind their products. I recently sent in a pair of binos for what I expected to be repair-refurbish work. Their response far exceeded my expectations. Vortex product warranty and customer service is excellent. Sent from...

The first cam images of this buck almost immediately had me thinking he was from the bloodline of a narrow heavy buck I took off this farm almost 10 yrs ago named Tank. T2 was the bigger bodied deer of the 2 mature bucks running in this area in 2023. Sunday late afternoon T2 came within range...

This spring was my first season hunting turkeys. As an experienced bowhunter, it felt a little strange starting over hunting an animal I knew so little about. As such, I leaned on a good friend, RJack, - asking lots of questions and hunting a few days together the past two weekends. Saturday am...

I know there are many fans of Barnes bullets on IW. Sunday night I shot a doe at approx 60 yrds, broadside thru the lungs. The blood trail was horrible. Entrance was 6-7" behind the shoulder, exit was about 8" behind the shoulder. The bullet broke a rib on the far side but went between the ribs...

Anyone shooting these heads ?? Opinions - firsthand results ?? Sent from my SM-G970U using Tapatalk

"Better lucky than good" is the best way to describe this hunt. I first saw this one bedded at 75 yrds in the timber area I was hunting. He was upwind and my efforts to call him in were met with stares my direction but nothing else. After about an hour, he got up and wandered NE about 30 yards...

2021 started with a speed bump for me health wise. Seems like I have been behind on projects all year. With the help of a great neighbor, I was able to create my first micro plot inside the timber. The spot was an old campsite location put in by the former landowner. As such, about 50% of the...

It doesn't matter if the name has a R or D behind it - Washington is just one big drunk fest pandering to the voters. If my WWII era father was alive today, he would be so pissed about how our the country has gotten so dysfunctional. Wake up America ...

I found this deadhead on Sat while taking a break from some TSI cutting. This buck had been on cams the past two seasons but I had never seen him on the hoof. He was a big bodied deer with poor antler genetics. This past Nov I got a series of pics showing blood on his busted antlers/tines so...

My daughter Haley has hunted late muzzleloader season in 2018, 2019 and 2020. In 2018, she harvested her first deer, a nice doe off of our farm in So Iowa. Due to EHD, the does were off limits in 2019 and the season came and went without a shot opportunity for her on a decent buck. Heading...

This buck showed up on cams about 3 weeks ago but I didn't get good images until just recently. Cams showed him coming to the main plot on our farm about 30 minutes before dark on both Friday and Saturday. I got down to the farm Sunday around 1:00 with both a work project and hunting on my...

I burned some CAB points and bought my first cell cam this past weekend. Went with a Browning Defender after running a normal Browning the past couple seasons and been pretty happy with it's performance. Setup of the wireless cam has prompted me to call customer service twice so far. The...

Taken today at 1640 heading to food after a group of three does passed by 5 minutes earlier. Most likely a nice 3.5 yo 8-9 pt. Slightly quartering to shot at just under 30 yrds. I hadn't tagged a buck since 2016 and it felt good to put a solid shot on a buck again after a bad shot on one...

Our farm sustained wind damage this am. The worst damage is one 20 acre area of the farm where some of our better white oaks were located. I saw downed trees to some degree throughout most of the farm but not as bad as this 20 acre portion. Some trees are down but many have snapped off tops...

I am hoping to finalize a tractor purchase in the next few weeks and have been looking at options for tillage equipment. The tractor is an older Ford utility - 55 hp. If anyone has or knows of a smaller used disc or tiller for sale, please PM me. Rear tire width for the Ford is approx. 80"...

I will be finalizing a small 25 acre add-on to my existing farm in the near future. One area within the add-on acres looks like a potential staging plot location. The spot is a NW-SE timber ridge top that has a open pasture to the S across a boundary fenceline. Since this spot has a...

Now that the 2018-19 season is closed, what was everyone's perspectives on their season. I'll start: 1) Mature buck sightings - down for me. I saw one shooter buck on 11/9 that I estimate was at least a 4 yr old and was never offered a shot after 3 hrs of watching him tend a doe at 50-70...
