Iowa Deer Hunting
 

My grandpaw and I plan on making a hunt in iowa this coming season. Looking for a semi guided outfitter,anyone ever hunted the area? Any info will help...

Didn't Specktater go last year?

I think you have to put in for a draw to get a tag, you may be too late, not sure.

You are correct,waited too long. We are going to missouri now.

:)Went to Minnisota last year, no lottery, and the deer are jigantic!

That's what I hear....lil too far of a drive though. Did you hunt public land,or with a outfit?

private outfit. friend of a friend, however we had acces to 30,000 acres behind the guys house, that was prime. not like our public land at all.

Go to bayoubucks.com and ask the same question. Plenty guys on that state travel around. May be able to find a better place.

I went to Wyoming on an antelope hunt. Going on mule deer hunt in Utah this October. Never been whitetail hunting outside LA or TX. But like someone else said, post this same question on bayou bucks and they should have some good info for u. I got alot of big deer hunting buddies on there that I can't get to come over here.

Bayoubucks is nothing but killas. 24/7/365 in the woods. Fishing is what I do when all hunting seasons are over. Most over there are either killing pigs or practicing for next season. My hunting grounds are 3 hours away and I can't afford to go during the summer. No cry babies over there. They help people launch. Not cry over it.

I am a member on bayou bucks,thanks for the info. My dads podna lives in mo and knows a guide that is hooking us up. I am the same way is it october yet....would love to blast hogs year round at our lease,but 3 1/2 hour drive one way is too much.

Seriousy! is it October yet! :cry:

I have been bit by the buck fever much earlier this year. Sold my bow so I gotta wait untill primitive season. :cry:

:eek: um, I think you need a new bow ASAP

This is the first year in my life I'm not in a hunting club.The rising cost of R.O.M. hunting property has forced me out. I guess I'll be hunting family and public land.

:( sorry to here that, but atleast you have an alternate route!:)

Paying the bills is more important at the moment. :redface: Hopefully I can find a deal on a used one before then.

I feel for you bro....I have never hunted public land,hopefully never will. We have be lucky to be in a lease for the last 14 years with yearly dues never above 550. I hope we never loose it,put alot of work into it.

Whats your budget on a good used bow, draw lenght, ect.?

At the moment my budget would be free! lol I might get a base model PSE for around 400 bucks new if I can swing it before the season starts. I heard good things about the stinger HP,good price too.
