Nope, been coming this way for thirty years. Only time we went to Iowa was when the birds froze out here. Just curious as to what you considered to be thehayday.
Our experience is that there are few to no birds on open lands. Electronic posting is choking out access and the birds get pushed into adjoining lands. Locals say a lot of recent hunters pay no attention to whether or not it's posted. That's not going to help going forward.
Another anecdotal report, this one from the northwest corner. Just finished up day 4, if you don't have access to posted land don't waste your time. Unposted land and PLOTS have already been pounded
May or may not be intentional but you obviously don't care enough about someone else to go find another spot. I am no longer surprised by this behavior but am still disappointed by it. We go out of our way not to interrupt someone else's hunt. I really don't understand the behavior? Why would...
None, we hunt only land that is not posted and a few owners who allow anyone who asks to hunt. Why ruin somebody else's hunt by dumping into something they're hunting?
