From what I know, and having bow-hunted there recently, Iowa may be the most desired state to bow-hunt whitetails in the entire country. The wait to draw a license in the better zones is now 4 years (for a non-resident) due to the extremely high demand. And if you take a look at the prices they get for the "governor tags", which allow NR's to bypass the draw and hunt every year.....those now routinely go for over 10k apiece when they're auctioned at the various conservation banquets.

I see the author used very little stats or data to back up his "ratings". Maybe he just wanted to publish a "controversial" article to draw attention to himself?
