That picture started making the rounds 2-3 weeks ago, I heard it was even on Realtree's site. Yes, from what I understand, that pick is from Iowa. I was originally told NE Iowa, but I did see one post saying it was NW Iowa, either way it's along the river country on the state border.

The deer in the pic were taken during this years shotgun season a month ago, those are '04 tags on the deer. All bucks were harvested in a 1 square mile area. A memorable picture that's for sure, but I doubt anyone would want to be the guy(s) bowhunting that land.

I would imagine there was a "hot doe" in the area, when that happens during gun season results like this do happen. I talked to a friend the other day who said they killed 29 deer on 1 "push"....certainly a legal form of hunting here in Iowa, and necessary for the 'population control', but difficult as a bowhunter to relate to or, at least, to admire.
