Terry Drury's Post-Rut Muzzleloader Hunt in Iowa

I took my next post-rut buck during the second firearms season in Iowa. I was hunting my brother Mark’s farm on December 9, 2017, only two days after I’d harvested the Missouri buck. When I'm hunting Mark’s farm, I don’t try to guide the guide. I just go where Mark tells me to go and do what Mark tells me to do.

Terry Drury’s Post-Rut, Crossbow Buck

I'm almost certain the reason this buck came out and presented the shot is because we were hunting with cold temperatures and a full moon. We had a north-by-northwest wind, a bluebird day and a rising barometer about 30.28. All the conditions were right for bucks to be on the green fields.

Rusty McDaniels Fills Canadian Deer Tag in Final Hours of the Season

I was hunting with my good friend Grant Kuypers and his crew up at Buck Paradise Outfitters near Paradise Hill, Saskatchewan. I had hunted with Buck Paradise in late October for six days and did not have an opportunity at a mature buck. I was able to schedule a return trip in early December to try to fill my tag. I had the last four days of the season to make it happen.
