RE: Low Numbers
As IAhuntr said, here in Iowa the weather has had a big effect. We've had significant storms/cold come through every weekend of the shotgun seasons, including the bonus weekend they threw in this past weekend. The harvest is down about 25,000 from last year, which probably won't be made up during the remaining 3 weeks of Late Muzzleloader season, although I'm going to try to do my part.
