Well my name is Joe I am 28 and I live in a small town in Champaign County IL. I bow hunt my cousins small farm about 10 minutes away from my house. I also shotgun/bow hunt in Wayne county IL (2hrs south of me) on some family friends ground. My grand parents used to farm in that area so my dad, brother, uncle, 2 cousins and myself still go down to see old friends and hunt.

My inlaws also own 100 acres in Ohio county Indiana that I bow/shotgun hunt and this will be my second year hunting that property. It is really hilly so the exact oposite of what I am used to in IL. I haven't really been able to scout it like I would like since it's 4 hours away. I know it has big deer on the property and I have an idea where they might be so we will see what happens this season. The issue I am trying to work on is the Doe population. It has lots of slick heads running around so we are trying to as many as possible this year to get a better ratio.

My bow is a Ross Carnage with gold tip arrows and Rage broadheads.
I also shotgun hunt with a Savage 220 with a Nikon slug hunter on top.

It should be a good season for me. I have scouted more then I ever have before and I have more time set aside this season to hunt
(god bless my wife! LOL!!!!)
