The Iowa Conservation Commission reminds all lowans that their responsibility begins every time a gun is picked up. A hunter must be courteous, careful, respectful, and responsible both towards his fellow hunter and the man who owns the land on which he hunts.

These following tips will be helpful: 1. Make sure your gun is in proper working condition and is properly sighted in. 2. Treat every gun with the respect due a loaded weapon. 3.

Make sure the barrel is clear of obstructions and the gun is loaded with the proper ammunition. 4. Handle the weapon safely at all times. Watch the muzzle and never cross a fence or other obstruction with a loaded gun. 5.

Be sure of your target and never point a gun at something you don't intend to shoot. Early season tree leaves make this very important. 6. Avoid alcoholic beverages before and during shooting. 7.

Always ask permission before you hunt on private property. Be a safe and courteous hunter!
