RE: hunting Illinois for the first time
lol (leave the sunscreen).......... thanks for the info I have plenty of warm gear since I travel to a few areas a year to hunt like kentucky , North Georgia & North carolina.. I know it is alot colder up there but I should have plenty of warm gear. My wifes family lives up there so it should be a great time i am going to hunt with her cousin on Private land. Me personally I dont have to have a huge buck to make my trip a succesfull one and just looking for the opportunity to get into the woods and hunt an area in the country that is known for big bucks. For me a good size Doe is fine , since the back straps taste the same to me (lol). not too mention saturday after thanksgiving I will Fly to North Georgia where I took a good size 10 point last year. but am looking foward to the trip.
