🦌 Throwback Thursday! 🦌

Throwing it back to this Iowa whitetail! Just look at the antler growth on this guy. Hard not to get excited thinking about what he could look like when hunting season rolls around.

The scouting, the early mornings, and the time spent outdoors are what make this all worth it. Moments like this are a reminder of why we love chasing Iowa whitetails!

What do you think of this buck? Think he’s going to be a dandy this fall? 👀

🦌 BOWHUNTING TIP: DON’T FORGET ABOUT STRING JUMPING! 🏹

Ever wonder why a perfectly aimed arrow sometimes sails right over a deer? This is something every bowhunter should know about!

When a whitetail hears the bowstring, it can drop its body to load up its legs and get ready to run. This is called string jumping, and it can make a big difference in where your arrow hits.

🔥 A FEW INTERESTING FACTS:
• At 30 yards, studies and field observations have documented deer dropping several inches—and sometimes much more—before the arrow arrives.
• Arrow speed, shooting distance, and how alert the deer is can all affect how much it moves.
• A deer that is relaxed may react very differently than one that knows something is up.

Now let’s hear from the bowhunters! 👇

🏹 How far is your personal maximum ethical bowhunting distance?

🦌 Have you ever had a deer jump the string on you?

🎯 Do you practice shooting from an elevated tree stand, or mostly from the ground?

💥 What’s one bowhunting tip you wish someone had told you before your first season?

Let’s hear your experiences! There’s always something to learn from other hunters.

Something I feel like doesn’t get talked about enough in bow hunting…

Knowing when to back out after the shot. 🦌

Do you start tracking right away, wait a few hours, or let that deer sit overnight?

What’s your rule when it comes to tracking a bow shot deer? 👇

🎯 BOW HUNTERS — LET’S SETTLE THIS ONE! 🦌

What’s your go-to tree stand height?

10 ft? 15 ft? 20+ ft?

Some guys want to be up high, others swear by staying lower. I’m curious what everyone prefers and why. 👀

Drop your height in the comments! ⬇️ Let’s see where everyone is sitting this season.

Caught these two young bucks locking up for a quick second! 🦌

Things are starting to heat up in the Iowa woods! Who else has been seeing bucks sparring already?

Think these two are just playing around, or is the rut getting closer? 👀

What a great early morning out. Will post some videos later.

Finally got out to get some squirrels hunting in with my uncle. And let me tell you. They were just flying across the trees! Both limited out and plenty of big bits 😂. Hope everyone is enjoying their weekend! Get out and enjoy the beautiful weather.

🏹 First-year bow hunters — let’s hear it!

What’s ONE piece of hunting gear that everyone told you that you NEEDED…

…but once you started hunting, you realized you barely ever use it? 😂

Could be something in your pack, clothing, gadgets, scent control, or anything else.

What’s overrated? And what’s something you actually CAN’T go without?

Big news for us today. We are now partnering with Tactacam.

We’ve been using their products for sometime now and have always had great experience. Photos/videos always come in clean and quickly.

Customer service has always been nice and super easy to work with.

So this leads us to today. Our goal with this partnership is not to sit here and say buy this buy this now!

The phots and videos will do the talking for that by its self, our goal is to get more cameras out and provide more exposure to what the wild life is doing and much much more.

We use these cameras not just to watch deer and turkey and predator movement we use them as security as well.

In near future we will have a hands on video of the camera being unboxed and our out in the field just so you see how easy!

As always give us a follow and join our journey!

🦌 A COUPLE SPECIAL HUNTING OPPORTUNITIES! 🦌

This year, I’d like to open up two spots for something a little different.

👦 YOUTH WHITETAIL HUNT
One opportunity for a young hunter to experience their first whitetail hunt, learn the process, enjoy the outdoors, and hopefully make a memory they’ll never forget.

🧑‍🦱 NEW / INEXPERIENCED HUNTER — 1ST SEASON SHOTGUN
One opportunity for someone who is new to deer hunting or simply hasn’t had much experience. This would be a 1-day or weekend hunt, depending on what works best.

The goal isn’t just about harvesting a deer. It’s about getting someone into the woods, teaching them, sharing the experience, and helping build the next generation of hunters. 🌲🦌

Only ONE spot available for each opportunity.

If you or someone you know might be interested, send me a message or comment below. Let’s get someone in the woods who may not otherwise have the opportunity!

Passing It On… One Hunt at a Time. 🦌
