    From the start to finish-a very long read

    It was a long day when we found that spot. I'll never forget it. What was meant to be a short scouting trip ended up in a bittersweet five hour hike. We were lost in the middle of a state forest, but it was due to not wanting to be out of the woods. We had undoubtably found a honey hole. It...

    Cross Bows in Iowa....? I hope not

    That's not good. It's incredibly bad, in fact. Wounding a running deer with a bow is too much of a risk

    Cross Bows in Iowa....? I hope not

    You don't support crossbows in MZ season, but they are okay in gun season? Are you saying crossbows are as effective as high powered rifles? I have no respect for any hunter that bashes someone for using a crossbow. Hunting is about getting out and enjoying it as long as you are doing so...

    Trail cam life

    I would bet the big camera companies know this too and that is why they avoid 100% water proof cases. I've had a camera last 4 years.. I've had a few die within ten days

    Potential Pa Record Typical

    It's not about how few reach maturity there. Midwest people seem to not realize that the deer there are just much much larger than other places for various reasons. Here in TN our typical record is 186. There are probably several of those killed in Iowa every year. We have just as many...

    History buck has blown my mind

    158 3/4. I expected a bit more from the camera pictures, but he had incredibly short ears. He was only 16.5" wide even though he appeared close to 18

    History buck has blown my mind

    I got him this morning at 7:15. Scored 158 3/4 unofficial. He will make our TN registry and will probably be in the top ten registered for my county just to give you an idea of how special he was!

    Scrape Cams 2&3

    Awesome pictures. I finally got some scrape cams set up. Also If I'm not mistaken, your the guy that was in a hunting contest with me on a huntingnet in 2012. Glad to see based on the avatar you got a big one since!

    Another history buck exploded in size

    This post is a little late. I have posted the 4.5 year old ten we've been watching since 2012. He ended up not growing a tremendous amount from 2012-2013. From 2013-2014 he blew up in mass and frame size, IMO anyways. I have referred to another deer that was in the same spot in 2012 as his...

    Age/Score

    125 is a fair guess on that deer. Not the longest tines, but he's still young.. 2.5-3.5 and could easily develop into a giant. I'd rather see a 125" 2.5 than a 140" 4.5 any day :)

    Dates are correct

    His rack is 100% irrelevant to age and even 1.5 year olds tear up there ears when fighting. Definitely mature.

    Update on nine point

    I posted this nine point recently. I had him guessed at only developing into a mid-high 30's deer, but he surpassed my thoughts. I also think he is only 3.5.

    History buck has blown my mind

    I hope I catch up with him too! I don't think he is quite a booner, but he MAY squeek by the awards mark if he scores a gross of 168-170 (which is possible) His left side is a little larger except on the brow and G2 so he will have a fair amount of deductions. I'd guess about 8-10" Mostly from...

    History buck has blown my mind

    I got this pic in late July. I figured he might be right at 160 when he finished as most deer were nearing completely finished antler growth. Due to a mistake on my part I missed him for a few weeks. When I seen what he had turned into my jaw dropped. I expected maybe an extra inch on his...

    Percentage of bucks you get on trail cams to total amount in area

    I watch a field every night and only have gotten 3 out of 8 on camera on corn. That is only over a week, but don't worry too much about what doesn't show up on camera

    Bucks, yr to yr

    The third one most like is not the same deer. Brows are different. Head on views are best for telling "same or nots" Also look through several pics and try to find cuts in the ears. The majority of my deer have unique cuts that allow me to identify them.

    Most recent trailcam pull

    That nine points frame is almost as big as his body. There all great, but he is crazy big!

    Seeking a little help from all members

    Hello everyone, I am looking for several different pictures of bucks you have summer pictures of. The only requirement I need is an age of the deer from jaw bone or laboratory methods so you or an acquaintance must have killed/found the buck. I will be using these photos for a little...
