RE: Anyone From Illinois
Yeah, I agree I hunt the Shawnee in Pope and Johnson Counties. Lots of deer, but you would never catch me out there during firearms season. To much orange for my taste. There are some great public hunting hidey holes but they are hard to find. All in all you will see deer... trophy class??? thats all up to what you consider a trophy. I see about 3 140+ class bucks during bow season on public land.
