Tips for second IA shotgun season

Hunter Orange

After Iowa's first shotgun deer season, state conservation officers have an important message to hunters before the start of the second shotgun deer season.

Officials say hunter safety and target identification should be on everyone's mind before Saturday. Officials are urging hunters to review their blaze orange to make sure it's not faded and is in fact 100 percent solid blaze orange with no camo. Another safety tip is for hunters using a blind to hunt. Those hunters will need to have a minimum of 144 square inches of blaze orange marking on the blind visible from all sides.

Iowa's second shotgun season begins Saturday and lasts through December 18th.
