Nice looking rub up, good luck to everyone!

Here in Iowa we are very fortunate. The partof Iowa I hunt isn't the best part, but will have a good share of big deer. I have spotted this Summer alone, 11 different Pope & Young bucks. I believe that one or two of them will score well over 150", but it is so hard to tell when they are in velvet. We tend to follow the corn around here, as it seems the nice deer do as well. I learned a hard lesson last year shooting a buck that was about 100", which was not to shoot until I get to see the whole rack. The deer was as wide as its ears, but had no tine length. I missed out on the rut and kicked myself ever since. I will be hunting for a Pope & Young buck or better. I probably won't get him until November though. My brother-in-law also hunts with me, and has taken P&Y bucks the last 2 years. One he stalked up on just before dark, the other he took out of one of our treestands that is traditionally a good buck stand. I will bow hunt between 35 & 65 days this year depending on how many days I have a babysitter for my kids. I will be hunting for a solid week during the rut. I can't wait for November to get here. All my stands will be in place before next weekend ends.
