I'm in central Illinois..exact city is super secret, haha
my property is two legal lots....my house and the neighbors house is in city limits...and the back half is outside of city limits. I hunt the back half and have permission from neighbors to hunt their adjoining land (i only bow hunt here...too dangerous with guns with all the houses). total land I can use is about 8 acres....which is fine for one stand. which gets used maybe once or twice a week........ its a very wooded area...hundreds of acres easy interrupted by a few streets and houses...
I have some food plots planted and the two mature apple tree. The apple crop is the big variable....i over pruned the trees last winter so my crop was tiny.....normally the ground is littered with them ,......its a late-bearing variety of apple too which normally drops them in mid to late Oct/Early Nov.....
