I'm from Iowa, and there are no big deer here that give you a chance to shoot them, atleast not around here. Who else can't wait for October 1st and 31st to get here? I got a new bow last year, never got the chance to put a deer down with it, so I'm gettin antsy. I also got a new black lab pup this year, never had my own dog, so I am excited to get out and see how he does on the ole ringnecks!
