They have some strange Game Laws in Illinois...we were going to Hunt over there and was told we had to have our Bows inside a carrying case when transporting them over there...ended up not even going after all.Another law is high-powered Rifles aren't allowed when Deer Hunting..only Shotguns and Muzzle Loaders are allowed I believe?Not sure where or why the carrying of Rifles are allowed unless its for Coyote/Predator Hunting purposes.


But as mentioned in all the Fines that person recieved...Illinois has some pretty strict Game Laws to abide by...if You shoot a Deer and it goes onto another Person property You are not allowed to retrieve it,it is considered theirs and You can get into a lot of trouble for trespassing.A Friend of ours brings a Illinois monthly news letter magazine to us here in Missouri and it list all the different Regions in Illinois on People that get caught breaking the Law while Hunting in Illinios...its amazing what some will do to get into trouble from taking too many Fish,breaking Boating Laws,shooting Deer out of Season or with a High-powered Rifle instead of the shotgun or muzzle loader its pretty comical to read all the things People will do! LOL
