Good luck ,Be safe,always ID your target and only take killing shots,Honor and respect the animal.
It pisses me off, but the last part of this sentence is one of the most important things in hunting, but yet its often the most disreguarded.
Be patient and still.
Thank you for writing that. I have been hunting all of my life and still have trouble with both of those, esp the patient part. Patience in deer hunting? Try chasing around ahenned up gobbler all day.[&:]
I am not sure if hunting with a shot gun is legal in IL or not. If you are going to be still hunting, you said that your gun came with two barrels. I am sure one is a slug barrel. You want to use it for deer hunting with slugs.
One of the most important things is getting out in the woods and getting the feel of everything. Another is questions. Theres no such thing asa bad question.
