I am in the process of building a homemade blind on top of a running gear for mobility purposes. It will be used for gun hunting only particularly late muzzy.

Hi guys. I am sure a lot of member on here have purchased land before and might be able to steer me in the right direction. I am in the process of purchasing a house on 65 acres of recreational ground and am looking at financing options. Fixed verses variable loans? Local banks verses larger...

The story starts in the summer of 2016 when a nice 8 pointer showed up on camera. I guessed he was 4.5 and knew that he would get a pass if given the opportunity. After missing bow season due to an ankle injury it was now LM season and I had seen the big 8 on a local food source several times...

Looking at buying a new ground blind primarily for bow hunting turkeys. Really like the double bulls just not sure whether to buy the Bullpen or the Deluxe? Mostly hunt by myself but hunt with friends on occasion. Do any of you have experience with either of these? Is the extra room in the...

With Turkey season quickly approaching I am getting rid of my old cheap decoys and in the market for a new spread. I would like to get a jake and hen combo and I am looking for opinions. I am not sure if I am willing to drop the money on the Dave Smiths even as awesome as they are. What other...

With deer season ending and river season on its way, I heard an interesting debate the other day an figured I would see what your guys opinion is. In the state of Iowa would you guess there are more 160"+ deer or 40+ pound flathead catfish. Flatheads are always a target of mine during the...

Does a youth hunter (8 years old) that is a non resident have to go through the preference points/drawings for an Iowa tag just as an adult would? I am looking to take the little guy hunting but can not find any information on non resident youths. Thanks, Tyler

What an exciting hunt! I have been seeing a group of birds using a field the last couple weeks so Tuesday after work I slipped in and set up my blind on the edge of this 15 acre hay field. Got off work and was in the blind at 4:50 pm on Wednesday afternoon. Around 5:30 two hens made their...

Hey guys. I know many of you are land owners and might offer some great advice when it comes to financing options available on land purchasing. I am getting to the point where I have been looking pretty heavily into purchasing my first piece of ground. What can you guys tell me about your...

Okay guys I'm worried sick and can't sleep. Tonight I hit a good buck right through the middle of the neck halfway between the shoulder and head with a 2 bladed rage at 10 yards from 20 ft. up. I saw him go 80 yards with quite a bit of blood the first 10 yards then backed out. Is he dead?

After a long disappointing bow season I would like to share the story of "Eddy" my 2011 Late Muzzy harvest It all started in the summer of 2010 while chasing a different buck I got my first pictures of Eddy in velvet. I guessed this deer at 3.5 and right around the 140" mark and thought...
