I agree salukipv1. That idea sounds pretty good. As a bowhunter Iowa is as good as it gets. We have all of Oct. and Nov. to bowhunt only (other than youth seasons) So the rut is just forbowhunters. But the past two years during shotgun seasons the weather has been horrible and not enough deer were killed, so thats when they started implementing these other seasons.
I know there are reasons for not having an early doe (firearm)season but we are allowed to get a ton of doe tags so if everyone would shoot does and does and does it would help.
