[quote=fastetti;3646450]Here is my question for you. I have permission from all (only 2) house that are within the 100 yard dwelling law for Illinois. Now, here in the suburbs of Chicago, hunting is sometimes frowned upon by a lot of people. Now, I am legal to hunt where I do, what I was wondering would you talked to the neighbors, say, up to 200 yards away and let them know what you are doing and ask for permission to go onto there land if you have to track an animal before hand or wait and see if the situation ever comes up. I really don't want to alert neighbors to what I am doing in case they are anti-hunters but wouldn't mind getting permission to track a deer onto there land or to even scout. Most of these houses (there would only be 3 more I'd want permsion from) are Million dollar houses so its tough to judge what their opinions would be. Any thoughts on what you guys would do? Thanks.
Also, if any of you have an opinion on a great short range broadhead that would drop a deer as fast as possible with a well placed shot, please let me know. quote]
I wouldn't inform anyone else that you will be hunting there until you had to in the event of a deer running onto their property. You'll end up with some anti stomping through the woods to mess you up during the season or dumping cologne or something to spook the deer if they are smart enough to do that. I would try to set up as far from those properties and closer to the state land you mentioned. Then the deer would be less likely to make onto the other neighbors properties. If the deer would run onto that state land you apparently have the law on your side to aid you in going to recover your deer.
As far as broadheads... you'll get a hundred different opinions. Alot will say Rage, others will say Muzzy, Slick Trick or Strikers as I shoot. I have never had a deer make it beyond 75 yds with my strikers. It is what you have confidnece in that matters.
