Biggie Hoffman · July 16, 2008, 01:43:00 PM

Hey Mike, if I draw a tag this year, I'll show you one :D

Steve O · July 16, 2008, 01:52:00 PM

These guys that live in Iowa must not drive very far...

I just tried 3 different way to scoot the sytem and confirm my draw; no dice. Hopefully there will be no snafus Friday

Hoping for similarly good news though my application is for a zone on the west side (3 I think) so it's closer to home. I can be parking my rig about 60-70 min. after leaving my eastern NE home.

Yellow Dog · July 17, 2008, 06:22:00 PM

Looks like Biggie, Steve O and Steve H are going too!!!!

kennym · July 17, 2008, 06:24:00 PM

Congrats fellers!!

Steve H. · July 17, 2008, 06:37:00 PM

Yes, it looks like I did! Almost was hoping I wouldn't LOL. I have muskox logistics on my brain, very complicated so good thing my buddy Charlie knows his farm so all's I have to do is by a plane ticket and show up!

Wampus · July 17, 2008, 07:39:00 PM

Woohoo! My brother and I got drawn too. Our outfitter said we were the only bowhunters with 2 points that had booked with him this year.

Yellow Dog · July 17, 2008, 07:50:00 PM

Steve, know what you're talking about. I called the outfitter as soon as we found out we drew and he said we were darn lucky to draw zone 5 with 2 points.

Biggie Hoffman · July 17, 2008, 08:02:00 PM

Aw Steve...poop on a muskox...this is real live big whitetail country. You can walk up to a muskox and kill him anytime...IOWA is a special draw!

Steve O · July 17, 2008, 09:35:00 PM

This is going to be GREAT!!! Good luck fellas

Steve H. · July 17, 2008, 11:03:00 PM

Big-1, Iowa tags, once every 3 years guaranteed ~what-ever~, AK ox tag, probably once in a lifetime, very low odds to draw.

The only big deal about the Iowa WT tag to me is my buddy Charlie has a farm there. WT are a dime a dozen, LOL.

bowmac · July 17, 2008, 11:39:00 PM

No big Bucks in S.E. Iowa so you won't want to hunt down this way.

Biggie Hoffman · July 18, 2008, 06:05:00 AM

Ow! Steve....that one was right in the heart!!

Like ol Andy Griffith says "that cuts me deeeeep"

:-)

RecurveJim · July 23, 2008, 08:57:00 PM

Me and two of my buddies drew for zone 8,my sister lives in LeClaire and this will be my 4th time there,havent connected with a monster but ive seen a few that had me shakin,I also agree that the tag prices are ridiculous,if I didnt have a place to stay I probably wouldnt go,but good luck

fireman_3311 · July 23, 2008, 09:02:00 PM

I'm now settin on 2 preference points, hope to draw next year!!! Will prolly raise the price by then...lol!!!

Biggie Hoffman · July 24, 2008, 07:27:00 AM

I think your outfitters are just getting you pumped up...I think nearly everyone with 2 points drew. I always count on the 3rd year and have been drawing Iowa tags for years.

12 years ago when we 1st started going there, I drew 3 years in a row. Those days are gone :-(
