Without reading all of the posts here are my complaints:
Too many gun seasons
Season is too long(archery and gun)
State government is only interested in gaining more money(unlimited doe permits for archery is stupid)
Illinois has gone from one of the best managed deer hunting states to one of the worst in the last 10 years. At least our neighbor to the east(Indiana) has the wherewithall to decide county-by-county of how many deer should be taken by individuals. If you want to not use your tags, poach, etc. then most parts of Illinois is fair game as we have far too many game wardens covering far too many areas.
Plain and simple, Illinois politicians tell the DNR how to run things.
