I was right on the JoDaviess/Carroll County border for the last 10 years or so. Last year we decided that dealing with the hassles the landowner was causing us just wasn't worth the time we put in trying to get trophy deer, so this year we're about an hour North - in Grant County, Wi. I tell ya what, it's a night and day difference between the amount of deer and awesome sign we saw in IL to the lack of sign and deer up where we're at in WI. Right about now I'm missing my IL spot, that's for sure. [&:]
