    Frequency of bear returning

    Im interested in anyone’s experience with baiting bears more so in the fall than the spring. But my question is how often do bears return to bait stations after the hunter stops baiting?

    Best fat for deer sausage

    I thought I would try my hand at making some deer sticks or possibly brats. Would bear fat work or go with pork fat? Or a different fat?

    Woodsmanship

    Been listening to a lot of deer podcasts lately and I keep hearing woodsmanship skills. And it made me reminisce of the old days where I wandered the woods with a rimfire and shot squirrels and had no exact “spot” to get to. It also made me realize I don’t have near the skills I did as a...

    What to do with carcasses and bones?

    Curious to see what everyone does with the carcasses and bones of critters they kill? I sometimes give them to a friend who has a bunch of hounds or toss them in my ditch.

    Iowa regs change/update

    Wasn’t sure where to put this but I figured it would be most visible here. Iowa has done away with nr doe tag group hunting. Where a nr coukd buy a doe tag and kill a buck if he was “party hunting”. The other change is they banned cell cams. Labeling it as an extension of a phone or electronic...

My question (maybe dumb🤷🏻‍♂️) is if I have a otc tag is it illegal or a bad idea to use this trail to...

    Who doesn’t wear camo to hunt

    Comparing prices on camo and thinking plaid might be my new color. I feel like I’m reverting back to my childhood of wearing a faded green mechanics one piecebut the price difference between camo and clothes that are simple earth tones are insane to me.

    I feel like at higher elevations I have zero appetite and I literally have to force myself to eat. Am I alone in this? I’m considering taking a meal replacement shake and a few snacks instead of debydrated meals. I have no problem drinking water and figured it would at least be a way to get...
