Today rather than head west I tried a couple (new to me) Osceola and Dickinson counties public hunting area's. My brother in law gave me a place (Wildlife Management Area) to start at. His mother in law lives in the area and he hunts it every Christmas when he comes back with good results. So I...

So it's not just me!!!! I received a Stevens 555 12 for Fathers Day this year; took it out once and missed the two roosters I had a chance at. So I went back to the twenty plus season 1187 that has been tried and true ever since. If roosters weren't so dang few and far between I'd go back to...

MinnHunter I echo your report. Rather than drive 2 hrs north to the large public tracts of NW Iowa I need to start looking more east and see if the pheasant hunting is any better around Ida, Sac and Calhoun counties. The hunting keeps getting tougher up north where I have been going. My young...

If I'm road hunting ditches 30 to 45 minutes to get to a decent area, to reach the large public tracts I've been hunting this season it's a 2 hrs 15 minute drive each way.

I did not go hunting today, I have the next 9 days off and plan on hunting more of them than not. With the sun and temps we are having today though I would imagine alot of the snow will be melted in the area's I hunted yesterday. That said I have not hunted the Iowa counties right below the...

This year I've been hunting so much Iowa public all I carry with me and in the truck are steel 4's.

So after pheasant hunting the past couple of days in NW Iowa I can report the pheasants on the public area's I hunt are very spooky / jumpy. Hunting the ditches has picked up since the snow, but with 40+ degree temps coming in the next few days the snow is going to quickly turn dirt to mud...

With Gun Dog Supply I got to choose from ton of collars and options. I also got email updates from Steve (for the order I placed) and Brett when I asked in the comments section for out the door that same day if possible. Brett replied back no problem, placed my order Wed morning and had it at my...

I flushed a nice covey of 15 or so today, but in this wind they were gone before I got my gun up. Leaving me to say to Kepa, I think those were partridge!!!!

Just ordered from Gun Dog Supply,thanks for this guys!!!

Even 1 bird in each state "in a day" would be quite a feat, let alone a limit in each. I live in Iowa and am 10 minutes from Nebraska and 20 minutes from South Dakota and would not even consider a limit in each state a feasible en devour. But hey don't let that stop you, good luck!!!!!

Can I still call today part of opening weekend? If so I can report my brother and I went today and made a 2 hour drive to some public ground near the Minnesota border. We shot three today, one off of public and 2 out of the road ditches. We always make it a point to stop and talk to other...

Ok so this morning I had church at 8am so it was a bit of a late start for me. I didn't get out of the driveway until 9:30, gas next with micky d's followed. The area I chose to hunt today is a solid hour away so I didn't get there until 11.The area has lots of public ground and it took me a bit...

Ok we went out this afternoon to some large public area's here in NW Iowa. We got to the public and right away noticed quite a few vehicles parked and easily picked out hunters in the fields. The area is quite large with multiple public spots and access. We did 3 individual hour long walks and...

Northwest Iowa here. Started at 8am sharp. Home at noon, 0 roosters bagged. Saw 2 roosters and missed 1. Also saw a covey of partridge, wasn't quick enough to get off a good shot. The wind is way worse than I thought it would be and we saw quite a few more hunters than in the past too (12 or 15...
