I would make two suggestions, of which when I shake this elk huntin' thing, I will go...this year I am planning on heading to a friends in Pike County, Illinois...so with that it was hard to say no

Wisconsin - Buffalo County Outfitters ..... great operation and if you look at the books, that county has the most P&Y, B&C entries than any other county in the US. I have talked to Scott and he is a down to earth person. I haven't hunted there, but with my research I have done, I wouldn't go anywhere else.

Illinois - The Quail Shed, talked to Cliff and they have a pretty simple operation that seems to produce some happy repeat hunters..

Good luck
