The January 5 - 6 depredation deer hunt at Springbrook State Park, north of Guthrie Center, will allow hunters to use a variety of firearms, not just muzzleloaders, as stated in the 2007/08 Iowa Hunting and Trapping Regulations.

Hunters may use a shotgun, muzzleloader or handgun as part of the depredation hunt. A list of firearms and calibers is on p. 23 of the regulations. Center-fire rifles are not allowed.

Hunters wanting to participate in the antlerless only deer hunt should contact the state park office at 641-747-3591. There are 75 antlerless only licenses available for the two-day hunt. Contact the park for more details.

For more information, contact park manager, Carolyn Hack, at 641-747-3591.

Lower Michigan Wild Boar Hunt
On October 12th, 2008 I had the pleasure of going on a Russian Wild Boar hunt for disabled hunters in lower Michigan. I used a 50 cal. blackpowder rifle. It was a once in a lifetime hunt for me, it was wonderful. I had a great time with the whole hunt.
