    Mathews Heli-m

    What’s a fair price on a used one in good shape? A friends son is looking at one for his first bow and asked me but I have no idea. I’m seeing $350-700. He found 1 for $500 and I told him that was probably fair but thought I’d ask the experts here also

    DNR Public Meetings

    Executive order 10 orders them to evaluate and propose what rules to eliminate and which ones to keep or amend. It’s asking for their input so I’m lost on their excuses. It specifically requires them to “engage the public for meaningful input”. Link...

    Coyote dogs and Private Land Deer Hunting.

    It’s all about the owners, and how much respect they have for the landowners. The majority if not all of the guys around here run GPS on their dogs and make an effort to stop them before they cross into property that they are not cared for. Once in a while, they get through but at least the...

    Game feeders

    I think mines a Moultrie. Plastic tub with metal legs. Weatherproof and holds 200lbs I think. It’s held up great for 6+ yrs now and was a clearance buy for less than $100. Battery holds up well too. I think I’ve had to buy 1 replacement in that time.

    Elk in Iowa

    To answer your questions: Northern part of the state seems to see the most Yes, getting a tag would be a big deal (there aren’t any)

    HF 2104 and SSB 3129

    As written, the bills state that the DNR cannot accept donated land if it was purchased at auction. So how far back does that stipulation go? If the land was bought at auction 10 years ago, can it still be donated. How about last year? How about we work on lowering taxes or something that would...

    I got an email and phone call this afternoon. I don’t get it. Who is getting in these guys’ ears to push this stuff? Anyway, here are the links and the Email https://www.legis.iowa.gov/legislation/BillBook?ga=90&ba=hf2104 https://www.legis.iowa.gov/legislation/BillBook?ba=SSB%203129&ga=90

    Legislative Update Week 2

    Sligh reported last week that is was dropped/done/over. “Bites the dust” were his words. I hope so.

    Speaking at classic & ISC dinner- suggestions on Keeping iowa great?

    All great points. Maybe an idea to promote, Eliminate the antlerless quotas and replace them with strictly depredation tags. Better educate the landowners that would qualify. There are still a lot of farmers that have no idea how they work. The quota system just creates areas with very few while...

    “I SHOULD BE ABLE TO HUNT MY LAND AS NR EVERY YEAR!!!”

    Prior to the implementation of “antlerless quotas”, that’s the way it was. You either hunted shotgun or late muzzy with an anysex. You had to choose. I think the only places you would be able to hunt both shotgun and late muzzy are counties with antlerless quotas. I know that you can’t buy an...

    Meat Locker lost my Antlers

    I’d think you’d have some legal avenues you could follow. It doesn’t seem any different than dropping your truck off for repairs and someone steals the wheels. The business is responsible as long as it’s on their property. Like others mentioned, did they have it posted that you shouldn’t leave...

    SF 255- more OUTFITTER TAGS!!!

    Nope. Only someone “registered and maintained since prior to July 2022”. That little clause would give a very select few all of the benefit ($$$). If they were to pass something like this, imagine the amount of “outfitters” we’d have. I’d register to get a guaranteed tag worth who knows how...

    SF 553

    That could get tricky also. Your LO tag is acquired with a specific parcel #. I don’t know if it’s actually written the same for LO’s but the proposal as written appears to say that the NR can only hunt the property that the license was assigned to. Regardless, we don’t need it. 1.A...

    “I SHOULD BE ABLE TO HUNT MY LAND AS NR EVERY YEAR!!!”

    It’s a vacation. Having a beach house, timeshare, mtn cabin, etc… is no different. You follow that localities rules while your visiting, like them or not. If not, most would buy somewhere more accommodating to what they want. We choose to live here even though we don’t necessarily have to. Iowa...

    Meat Locker lost my Antlers

    I thought about it after I posted. I Haven’t taken one of the Locker in years andI forgot about the other half of the tag.
