Well im up here in the Northern part of Illinois and so far things have been going nuts.......

Opening day i saw 19 deer, 8 different bucks. Last Sat i watched a basket rack 8 chase a doe around the beanfield. Another 8 point (that i have passed up 6 times so far) made a scrape about 15 yards from my stand.
Monday i had to take my son to boyscouts so my father sat in my stand. He took a real nice 8 point that dressed out at 200 pounds. At 62 years old he still gets excited and i love seeing it. He saw 29 deer, and 15 bucks that night when he took his.
Tonight its very warm and i saw 3 small bucks and 1 doe. Hoping this weather front moving in will get them moving again.

I have never seen this many deer ever on this farm im hunting. Not sure where they are coming from but im enjoying it while it lasts. I have seen 3 bucks that would make P&Y so far and i have never seen this before November around here. I have a game camera out there too so i hope theres some good pictures.
