10 days in Iowa...
 

Im Back from Iowa. I took a buck Saturday that should gross around 140. I passed several 130 to 140 class bucks early and seen a lot of deer. I shot a 140+ buck a few days ago and did not recover it searched for it for a few days then finally gave up and got back in the saddle and shot this one. I had my hopes on two bucks and held out for one of them till towards the end of the week. One was a giant fatso that would of dressed near 300 pounds. and the other was a massive 7 point. I got good video of the buck I shot, but I hit him a little back ( liver ) so I waited over night to track. 2 hour track job and I found him dead bedded in a river.

Here he is right where I found him.

I know the area. My inlaws farm is right near the border of Jackson and Dubque. My father-in-law's brother sold a huge chunk of land to the iowa dnr and pheasants forever last year. Lots of limestone caves. Kinda bummed me out when he sold it.
