Great pic, Lets just hope you can meet up with him soon! I am in central,Il too. I sat out in the cold blowing @$$ wind this afternoon. I have a stand up on a fence row with the wind right in my face....[:'(]
The dang wind must have been blowing 20-25 mph. Wind chill felt like10 -15 degrees.Same as yesterday, ya sat in that aslo.[&:] Right before to dark to shoot you get about 5 minutes to actually try to call something in......Saw nothing tonight. I think it was just to windy and cold. If I were a deer I would also wait for the wind to stop and that bright moon to come out!.

Keep us posted on your buck
Good luck!
