Well no luck! Saw just one buck before first light through the bino's.Very slow, the deer that I did see where in the corn to the north of mylease. I did however see a 150+ buck 3/4 of a mile to the north one afternoon while driving around the section. Also got a report from another local farmer that the 160 class 10 point that I had an encounter with during the archery season is still alive. So there is hope for next year, my fields will be in corn and should really help to hold the deer. Another year in the books for me in Illinois. Harvested 1 doe and passed 9 different bucks.
