Default RE: Southern Illinois first season

ORIGINAL: Huntingtherut

Im leaving PA and heading to Illinois on Wednesday evening to hunt in north Bureau county during the first firearm season. I am guessingI will be north of where you guys will be. Very, veryexcited, but really do not know what to expect. This will be my first trip out and the anxiety is starting to build. We will be hunting on a private farm that is about 80% agriculture. I sure hope the state of Illinois lives up to what I keep hearing about.Friday can't come soon enough!!! Anyone have any idea what I am getting myself into??
Dress for some cold. It will be windier out there in the fields.I would get out SUPER early. Maybejust hunker down in a sleeping bag till shooting light gets close. I like to fully utilizethe winds in and on ag fields by using a drag of doe in estrous.
