welcome to iowa, i growing up in northwest iowa and now resident in wisconsin, well i have know iowa deer hunting can be very good if u start research in ur area or go ask permission from landowners, iowa farmers just hate deer so they want keep deer damage from crops . so pick up topographic or area or drive around in gravel road as long as u find good look area and stop and ask for permission or go publicland either..

i already have 8 permission to get in landowner since i grow up and still know the people that live there .

just give some time for them to trust you then u will be goood to go in and out without get stop by landonwer..

good luck on new life in iowa.. enjoy the corn and best whitetail ..

I hunted SE Iowa with an outfitter during first week of November, 2009. There was some public hunting land nearby that was very lightly hunted. I scouted it and found some impressive scrapes and rubs. I would recommend that you scout your nearest public game lands. You might be pleasantly surprised.
