You should be hitting Illinois for my all-time favorite week of bowhunting here. In fact, check the record books and you'll find that a high percentage of our states biggest bucks have been tagged during the first week and a half in November. I know every year it seems that the biggest bucks fall between the 5th and10th, including a few of out state records! The 251 6/8" P&Y monster in my Avatar was taken onNov 8. Just hope for some cooler temps to keep 'emmovin' all day long. Good luck and good huntin'
