Did the title catch you? Good, it should because it's the dead honest truth. This week's guest, Ross Hausmann, an avid deer hunter and conservationist joins me to discuss the incredible gift of an Iowa farm he and his wife received from someone he asked for permission to look for sheds. It's an incredible story that seems like it could be made into book, or at least a hit country song.

Other Topics We Discuss:

-Is it still good to be an Iowan?

-Recent deer history in Iowa

-How to find Arrowheads

-Using orchards in your land management plan

- Land management practices for the entire ecosystem
