Hello from iowa. I'm 36, married with two boys, 7 and 4. I've got two mules that I've had in Colorado and Wyoming elk hunting. Haven't got an elk yet but the fire is burning and I cant wait for Sept. Bugling bulls is what I crave ( like most of us). In the meantime I hunt whitetails and turkeys (mostly w/stick and string) here in Iowa to pass the time until my next trip to the mountains. I'm glad to be a part of the forums and I'm looking forward to sharing my experiences with other like minded hunters.

Welcome packingin. My whole immediate family and first cousins were from Iowa (De Moines, Pella and Walnut), then they moved to the west coast and had me. Welcome to the forum! Do you do any pheasant hunting there?

I pheasant hunted for the first time this year in probably 5 years, I missed the only rooster I saw. The pheasant numbers have gone up the last two years, thanks to a couple of good springs.:)
