Separation Requirement: Hunter shall not hunt within 150 feet of a home, building, or property line UNLESS
the property owner or authorized manager of the property waives that separation requirement in writing. The
Waiver of Separation Requirement form must be filed with the City. The separation requirement applies to
5
homes, buildings, and property lines on the property being hunted as well as homes, buildings, and property
lines adjoining properties. If the property requires more than three waivers, the property cannot be hunted.
Adjoining property means all parcels of property that share a property line with the property to be hunted
including properties that contact each other only at one point.
Hunting License – Urban Deer /Tag – Permission Form(s): While hunting within the City of Iowa City
ALL hunters must carry their Iowa DNR hunting license, Urban Deer License/Tags, and the permission
form associated with the property being hunted. If Waiver of Separation forms are required, they must be
carried as well. The Iowa Department of Natural Resources (IDNR) and the Iowa City Police Department
will be conducting checks throughout the season. Any hunter not having the proper documentation on their
person will be subject to removal from the program and/or subject to citation.
Reporting Process to Confirm Harvested Deer: All deer harvested within the City of Iowa City must be
reported to the IDNR AND the City of Iowa City Police Department. To report a harvested deer under the
City’s Bow Hunt Program, please follow these steps before transporting the deer off the property.
1. Mandatory Harvest Reporting for Deer: Hunters who harvest a deer must report the harvest to
the IDNR by midnight on the day after it is tagged, or before taking it to a locker or taxidermist, or
before processing it for consumption, or before transporting it out-of-state, whichever occurs first.
The hunter whose name is on the tag is responsible for making the report. Failure to report or
reporting falsely may result in a misdemeanor citation and possible loss of hunting
privileges.
2. Registering Harvested Deer with The City of Iowa City: Hunters must register the deer with the
City by calling 319-356-5276 and requesting an officer meet them at their vehicle prior to leaving
the hunt location.
3. Report Hit Non-Recovered Deer: Just as IDNR regulations requires you to report deer hit but not
recovered, you will also must report this with your hunt coordinator. Please leave your name, time
and date, area hunting, area deer last seen, sex of deer, and area of deer struck. This must be
done within 12 hours of not locating the injured deer. Email is the preferred method of contact.
Avoid Confrontation with the Public: If anyone confronts you in a harassing manner while you are
attempting to hunt, DO NOT engage in any threatening behavior, back talking, etc. Instead, call the Joint
Emergency Communication Center at 319-356-6800, request an officer to respond, and attempt to remove
yourself from the situation. The incident must also be reported to the hunt coordinator via email or phone
call immediately.
Interaction with Law Enforcement, City Employees, and Public: Hunters must at all times be respectful
and cooperative with any Law Enforcement Official, City Employee, and/or the Public. Any verbal or written
complaints of hunter(s) displaying rude or disrespectful behavior will be investigated. Hunters found not
being respectful and cooperative will be removed from the program immediately.

allowed to use a crossbow as defined and limited by the IDNR.
• A hunter shall not dispose of any animal part on a public property, including roadside ditches.
Entrails, bone and unusable parts of the deer can be disposed of in the trash if it is bagged in
plastic. This applies to the City of Iowa City. If you live outside the City, consult your garbage
collection service for proper disposal guidelines.
• Deer must be covered during transport.
• Hunt location will not be approved if more than three Waiver of Separations to the 150-foot rule are

• Tree stands cannot be erected sooner than 7 days prior to the hunt and must be removed within
7 days after the hunt.
• Only 3 tags to be issued at a time.
ADDITIONAL INFORMATION
No in-person meetings will occur ahead of the 2020-2021 hunt with the hunters and hunt coordinator, due
to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Buck Incentive Award Program:
2020-2021 Program: The IDNR is the sole authority to determine the number of Buck tags which will be
awarded to the Bow Hunt Program. This is based on the total number of antlerless deer harvested under
the City’s Bow Hunt Program during the previous season. Therefore, until the upcoming season is
completed on January 10, 2021, the number of Buck Tags that may be awarded is unknown.
To ensure participation in the City’s “Buck Incentive Award Program”, a hunter must harvest 3 antlerless
deer in Iowa City’s Deer Management Zone. Button bucks, spike bucks, and shed bucks do not qualify as
one of the three antlerless deer.
• A hunter who harvests 3 antlerless deer as described above will earn 1 Buck Incentive Tag for
the 2021-22 City of Iowa City’s Bow Hunt Program.
• Only 1 Buck Tag will be awarded per qualifying hunter and only reported, registered and confirmed
Antlerless Deer Harvest Confirmation Reports will be utilized for this count.
7
• Buck Tags earned are not transferable and can only be utilized within the City of Iowa City.
Note:
In the event the IDNR changes their ratio for awarding Buck Incentive Tags, a special drawing will be held.
For this drawing, only a hunter who harvested 3 antlerless deer as described above will have their name
placed in the drawing. The names will then be drawn until the number of Buck Incentive Tags are utilized.
Example: 8 eligible hunters – IDNR award 7 Buck Tags – All eight names will be placed in drawing – The
first 7 names drawn receive the Buck Tag for the following season – 1 hunter will not be awarded a Buck
Tag.
Please be aware, the City of Iowa City’s Bow Hunt Program is reviewed annually by the City Council. The
City is under NO obligations to renew the special bow hunt for antlerless deer after 2023. In other words,
although your name may be selected for a Buck Tag, there is no guarantee the antlerless deer bow hunt
will be conducted the following season.
ALL hunters must remember, participating in the Bow Hunt program is a PRIVILEGE AND NOT A
RIGHT.
Poaching: Should you see possible poaching, please call the Joint Emergency Communication Center at
319-356-6800 or 911. Be prepared to give your location and detailed information regarding the
circumstances.
H.U.S.H. – Help Us Stop Hunger: Any hunter can donate any legally taken, field-dressed deer to any of
the participating HUSH lockers. For updates, visit www.iowahush.com. HUSH program lockers have been
advised to contact the local hunt coordinator and the IDNR regarding deer improperly dropped off. Hunters
violating HUSH drop-off standards and or spoiled meat will be subject to removal from the program. Please
take the ethical steps to ensure your deer has been preserved properly.
Post-Harvest Suggestions: These reminders will help you safely preserve the deer for your personal use,
as preparation for your locker of choice to process for you, or for the HUSH program. Remember, you
harvested the animal and it is your legal responsibility is to keep the meat from spoiling. Each day you
prepare to hunt, you should consider whether you have enough time to properly recover and take care of
your harvest or not. If you don’t -- you should not hunt that day.
Every harvest:
• Remove the entrails as soon as possible and before taking it to the locker. Proper techniques can
be viewed online if needed. Cooperate with the property owner regarding the disposal of entrails.
Have a plan before the harvest that fits your hunt location.
• Remove reproductive organs, clean out the chest cavity/rinse with water, split the pelvis and
remove anal cavity/rinse with water.
• Keep chest cavity open and hind legs open to ensure quick cooling.
• Minimize exposure to sunlight, rain and dirt.
8
When temperatures are above 50 degrees Fahrenheit:
• Purchase and use a large tote or sled to minimize clean-up for the following;
• Place 5 lb. bags of ice or frozen 1-gallon milk jugs of water in chest cavity and between the split
pelvis. Replace every 24 hours, or sooner if air temperature is high.
• Place iced deer on garage floor, this will help pull the heat out of the animal.
• Process as soon as possible or get your deer to the locker as soon as possible -- at least within 24
hours. If dropping off your deer at a locker, follow their directive on preparation.
Public Records
• The forms completed by owners and hunters are public records with limited exception such as
driver license information.
