    Land prices / insane!!!

    I watched recreational land in NE Iowa go from 5k an acre to 10k almost overnight. Seriously considering selling some land and banking half the proceeds to buy another farm in another area when the recession hits. I am crazy or no? Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk

    Oust XP

    I have had good success with it in tree plantings but was always told to not use the year you plant the seedlings. As stated already, a little goes a long way. Sent from my SM-G991U using Tapatalk

    DEAR OTHER MIDWEST DEER STATES….. From: Iowa

    Not only is Iowa's gun season in December but there are two of them... not to mention two separate muzzleloader seasons.

    Backpack

    I have an EXO 3500 for western hunting and excited to try it for stand hunting this year. You can sandwich your stand between the pack and frame and it carries the weight really nice. Very narrow so you can shoot with it on and it doesn't catch on limbs. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Northeast Iowa vs. Southern Iowa deer hunting.....thoughts, ideas and experiences?

    It will be interesting if portions of southern Iowa continue to experience EHD outbreaks every few years. Nock on wood, I have not experienced one in NE Iowa or across the river in WI. This may be a consideration when comparing the two. Sent from my SM-G950U using Tapatalk

    Better deer scoring system

    To put more emphasis on mass, main beam cross section area could be used with the current P&Y scoring system instead of circumference.

    Anyone done their own logging?

    Maybe conduct your own sealed bid process but with stipulation that logs will be harvested and in a row ready to load. Include diameter and length and species of each tree but at least u are not cutting trees without assurance that u will get a good price.
