UMatt,

Where in southern Illinois are you going? I drew a JEPC 1st & 2nd gun season permit and will be in Petersburg Nov. 13-23 if I don't fill my 2nd buck tag in Joliet. Great my girlfriend decided to try bowhunting because now I'll have something to do while waiting for my special hunt. I'll be on stand coaching her through her entire hunting season!

We did get to Cabela's yesterday for 3 hours and got her PSE bandit all set up! My son's old bow fits her perfect for poundage and draw length! She is shooting pretty good, and is an office manager with a company where she can shoot indoors every day until season. She loves it so far. I'm glad I picked this season to fill my first tag so quick, so she can have my undivided attention without distraction. I will put her in excellent shooting situations and expect her to kill a nice buck this year. No doubt in my mind she will do it!
