Jared heads to the river bottom farm that he and Mike own for the first hunt of the year there for Jared. There are multiple targets showing up on camera, including Marino and Gurley. Jared's intern and cameraman, Grant Noble, also has his Iowa bow tag now, increasing the odds of the duo getting a buck on the ground.
While the conditions are not right for hunting the big deer Jared is after, he takes advantage of this time to fill his fourth doe tag of the season. Although it is very windy, Jared waits for his perfect shot opportunity and is able to place his arrow exactly where he wanted it.
Jared and Grant slip in tight to to where they think the big deer has been bedding. Although conditions are not ideal, this deer has shown to be daylight active, which gives Jared confidence that this deer will show up.
After giving the area a break for a few days, Jared has waited for the right conditions to slip in on his big buck. Although the buck was a no show, Jared and Grant spotted a nice three year old chasing a doe. With the cold front moving in, Jared plans to hunt this buck for the next few days.
