RE: What about Iowa??
Hey fellow Iowa guys. I hunt up in NE Iowa and had a great season. I hunted 1st and 4th season and scored in both seasons. I shot a tom opening morning and then on the 1st of May I doubled up on a pair of two year olds with my nephew. I took a friend up last weekend and got pretty wet, but after the rain stopped about 9:30 the birds started to talk. We hunted damn hard until about 2:00 or 2:30 and the birds were really talking good, but to no avail. We had a pair of gobblers start off as far as you could hear them and come all the way within about 100-150 yards and stop. Just screaming thier red little heads off, and this was at about 1:00. I thought for sure that this was it but I guess thats why they call it hunting. There is no sure thing. We still have next weekend.
