Bow season in Iowa

[Blackfoot58]

In Caddo County where I lived in OK, somebody checked in a buck that weighed out at a whopping 105lbs. (haha!) It was the talk of the area. The bigger ones were in NWOK.

I’ve seen similar small bucks in Arkansas. We have does over 200 lbs (live weight) in Iowa and much of Illinois. I had a doe that was 240 lbs in 1987.

Ya them's great bucks.

Local forum has a guy out there as is common given the chance ,posting cam pics.
C,W.D. or something has them thinned out in that area this year.

Went past a friends farm after stopping at the taxidermist and he wasn't around .
He's another that will visit Iowa to hunt given the chance.
Long danged ride.
But last visit he said it's closer than his Michigan N.W. Upper peninsula property.
Which is , a long danged ride from the lower here...

My luck I'd hit one with the truck in between.

The Bear I have here is a Brown Bear 45#. I’m a left hander and it can be shot from either side.

Could you post a pic of the other info on the Brown Bear limb? Is it from Florida or Michigan? I mentioned it to some friends on an archery site I frequent, and there is several Bear bow collectors there who asked about it.
