IOWA NON-RESIDENT WHITETAIL TAG
This is the ninth year in a row which Iowa FNAWS has been granted one of the highly coveted Non-Resident Whitetail Deer Tags from the Iowa Department of Natural Resources. It is extremely difficult for a non-resident to obtain a whitetail tag in Iowa, however, Iowa is home to some of the biggest whitetails in the country and many believe that the next world record could potentially come out of Iowa’s rich cornfields. This tag allows the high bidder to have a chance at one of Iowa’s trophy wall hangers. This statewide tag is good for two deer (1 any-sex and 1 antlerless) in any unit in Iowa. The winning bidder may choose from one of the following seasons: archery, shotgun, or late muzzleloader, and pick his/her weapon of choice, whichever is legal in Iowa. The hunting season and dates can be found at www.iowadnr.gov In addition to his/her winning bid, the high bidder will have to pay directly to the Iowa DNR the normal cost of the tag and small game/habitat fee of $551. Past auctions have brought anywhere from $5500 to over $10,000. The tag is available for the 2019 or 2020 season and the winning bidder must contact Aron Arthur aron.arthur@dnr.iowa.gov) of the Iowa DNR by September 1st, 2019 to specify which season he/she will be hunting. Past tags have gone for as high as $12,000.
