Iowa Whitetail Zone 5

This extensive zone is situated in the south-central region of the state and is renowned for its impressive bucks and high number of available tags. The landscape is primarily made up of privately owned agricultural fields, interspersed with large stands of mature hardwoods, alongside numerous creeks, rivers, reservoirs, and wetlands. The area's genetics are excellent, enhancing the potential for exceptional trophy bucks. In recent years, this zone has consistently generated more Boone & Crockett entries than any other in the state. While record book entries have come from nearly every county, the western half of the zone has consistently been a top producer.
