With the harvest under way, I have been seeing more roosters than ever. In one buffer strip, I saw 75 roosters and in another I saw 100. No I haven't been smoking crack or tipping the bottle. But, I was dreaming and at least in my dreams there's still some birds in Iowa. I did see one...

I saw an ad to lease pheasant hunting on 5,000 acres for $50,000. For a sixty day season thats 833.33/day. Yet you could hunt many places for $500 a day or less where they provide food, lodging, guide, shells, and clean birds.

If you live long enough, you will see many low points or high points in your life. If your an Iowa pheasant hunter you are seeing a very new low. What is the Iowa DNR thinking with this pheasant stocking rule? Have they succumb to misrepresented public thinking? Now is a time for progress...
