Iowa deer hunting question?
Do any of you know how many bucks you can harvest per year in Iowa? I thought I remembered seeing one particular proffesional hunter with three bucks that he took in Iowa this past season.

Well since im a youth I can get a youth tag (any sex), a bow tag (any sex) and a muzzleloader or shutguntag (any sex).
But non-youths can only get a bow tag and a muzzleloader or shotgun tag. I think you can also get a landowners tag but im not sure if its for any sex or not.

We can get a bow tag (anysex), and a gun tag (any sex). Also, as a landowner we can get one additional tag (any sex) for any season we choose.
Now, to confuse the issue more. Our state also allows party hunting during the shotgun season.[:@] So, your buck killing there is only limited by the number of tags available to you by your group.
Hope that helps.

I thought so! It's amazing to me that Iowa keeps producing great bucks year after year,considering theyallow hunters to take 2-3 bucks per season. You would think at that pace, Iowa would start to see some P&Y and B&C numbers drop in the near future, IMO.

Another one of the big reasons is the switch to better land management and a steady food supply during the antler growing seasons... Farmers may not like it or agree with it, but they are actually in a way "growing" these huge bucks... Heck, you won't ever hear me complain
