26 Apr YouthGood youth hunt. Lots of birds. Thanks, Klint 10" beard, 1 1/8" spurs
Congratulations Landon and good going dad! A tough job getting a youth successful, always worth a picture on the wall.
Land
Just a nice doe picture from this past late winter snow fall period while on an early land run exploring potential lease replacements for land we plan to drop.
Tree HuggersOnce again hunters carry the conservation load. Iowa bird hunters will pay another $3 for their hunting licenses this fall. One dollar for buffer strip enhancement. Buffers as non-bird hunters may not know, are not originally designed for bird hunting but have their basis in soil conservation and water filtering of agricultural runoff. Two dollars will be for wetlands restoration. One comment from a father stated it simply gets more expensive to enjoy what many consider should be low cost or free, that is hunting should be at little expenditure. The father's son that was standing next to him had an Ipod in his ear, a cell phone on his hip and was playing a hand held video game (an exaggeration for illustrative effect, he didn't have the Ipod). There seems to be enough hypocrisy to go around.
