Disapointed in the Iowa Fish and Game Dept.
I had a tag for the first gun hunt last week in Iowa. While packing up the truck to leave the next I suffered a heart attack. My friends were able to go but I Had to stay in the hospital and get a heart cath done. My outfitter/farmer worked out a deal to just hold all the funds for a hunt next yr. I was bummed but realized OK it happened and I'm alive. Monday I call the Iowa fish and game and I'm told I will get no refund for my $550.00 non res tag. The biggest problem I have is that they won't even give my a tag for next yr or pref pts. I think this is a bit much. I have all the medical records to document my case but that doesn't matter. I don't want any sympathy but would like to get it out that this needs to change in every state. If there is a medical emergency you should get some pref pts or a tag the next yr.
