As most of you may know I have just had one the best moments of a Dad's life capturing my daughter on video, shooting the buck of a life time. I am alsovery serious about my videography and utilizingthe footageto have it to view for the rest of our lives, distributing it for production to a hunting DVD or TV show. Well I postedthe results of mydaughters hunt on the Kiskyforum and a concerned member of the forum PM'd me as he saw that I had filmed this hunt on State Ground here in Iowa and informed me that he was under the impression that it was illegal to capture and distribute said footage and I should check into this with the Iowa DNR as not not get myself and daughter in any sort of trouble. I thank that person for informing me ofthis and my first thought wasthis was the most absurd law that I have ever heard of, and checked into it this morning as I have NO intention of breaking any law. After much thorough investigation I was informed that it is NOT illegal, infact one of the Supervisors in DesMoines stated "Where did you here that? That is the mostabsurd thing I have ever heard of and no it is not Illegial to video any part of the outdoors as long as you are not participating inany hunt or have a valid license if you are participating." Here is a great link that was provided to me by one of Hunter Specs finest... http://www.iowalifechanging.com/document/lifesrchdoc.asp?sm=0&sum=1&rheader=0&h eader=0&sl=0&cb=0&doctype=2&progra m=34Thanks Nate for the link, it is much appreciated and thanks to all of you that answered my emails, I was concerned there for a moment that I may not be able to use the awesome footage I captured!!!

Yea, I had saw about the Mo filming being illegal on a video of the Drury's. I too think it is kind of idiotic.
