I called the local DNR officer and have not heard back, so I thought I'd give the IW crew a shot. Yesterday on my way home from work I noticed a man laying in the ditch next to the fence. This was next door to my farm and I know that no one has permission to hunt it. I stopped and asked...

I have a John Deere 4400 Compact Utility. Its a great tractor for my needs, but I need a cab or a heat houser. I have looked all over and have been unable to find anything for the compact tractor lines. I don't want to spend another day pushing snow without some sort of windbreak. Anyone...

Anyone know what a MK-85 would cost. I have a guy at work that wants to sell me one and the server is blocking all the gun sites. It has a blued barrel, 50 cal, with a camo stock. I have yet to take a good look at it, but it looks like it could have a little rust frond the breech plug. mole

I got a call from a friend and he was upset that the county he wanted to hunt during Thanksgiving was sold out. He was then told by the person selling the license that PETA had bought out all the tags in many Iowa counties. Anyone else hear of this? I guess I would put nothing past PETA...

I have a 5-10 acre area on my farm that I would like to plant to switchgrass. What do I need to do to prepare the land for a spring plant? Also what is the best grass for cover? I looked at Cave in rock and big bluestem. I am no farmer and really have no idea what I'm doing. I need help...

Does anyone know what the age classes are for a 3D shoot? I know they typically have pee-wee, cubs, youth, and so on. But what are the age cut offs. I have an 8 and 10 year old that are itching to shoot in Monte this weekend. mole

My 8 and 10 year old want to hunt next fall. What kind of load should I use that won't scare them half to death? They have both shot the 20 gauge and it definitely left an impression I thought I would try the 50 cal Knight with a lighter load. Right now I am shooting 100gr of Triple 7 with...

I finally broke down and bought some guillotines. My question of the day is how to practice with them. Do I need to sacrifice one of them for the good of the cause? I was planning on sighting in with 125gr field points, but I would sure like to see how these things fly out of my bow first...

Friday night while hunting with my 7 year old son we were watching a "buck" come out into the alfalfa field. As I was watching the deer through the binoculars I was surprised to hear a gun shot not more than 100 yards away. I watched the deer run and fall in the timber. After cleaning my...

I was butchering my doe from the weekend and I noticed my "scrap" pile of meat. All of the silver skin, sinew, and tough stuff. I am a self taught butcher and really enjoy the whole process. But it seems that I am ending up with a lot of "scrap" meat in the bowl that won't make it through...

Took this off my cam last weekend. How old do you think this deer is? I'm leaning towards 3 1/2. I'd like to see if he will grow out of the spike, but it could be tempting if he offers the shot mole
