Bumping an interesting thread. Lets keep this poll going to get an accurate result. Seems Booners are not behind every tree in Iowa like everyone believes. :think:

I have been deer hunting Iowa for 32 years and finally cracked the mythical 170+ range this past year. Not hunting managed land, but do stick to private most of the time.

October 26 2018 I did a blind hang & hunt with the LE Alpha and killed a gross 177 5/8 buck on my friends new farm.
The buck officially scored 171 6/8 BC
Over the last 30 plus years I’ve seen several.
1991 was the largest that deer went 209 NT and was poached a few weeks later and is now owned by the Iowa DNR.
The night I killed mine was a Four Draw event :D
