Ep. 425: Long-Lining Big Bucks in Ag Country (Iowa Scouting Trip Recap) w/ Rendell Erik

Beau Martonik is joined by Rendell Erik. Rendell is an Iowa resident who has successfully put his tag on multiple booner bucks on public land in agricultural areas. On a recent scouting trip, Beau met up with Rendell to scout some areas with the expectation of Beau drawing a coveted non-resident Iowa archery deer tag this fall. They discuss what types of public land areas produce the best bucks in the Midwest, rut hunting funnels, best time of year to plan an Iowa deer hunt, long-lining big bucks, buck bedding, key food sources, hunting the corn inside-out, and much more!
