Default Acorn Drop...Central Illinois

I hunt in vermillion county, and I was wandering what date a majority of white oaks loose their acorns. My honeyhole has seven or eight 100+ year old white and red oaks. Thanks for any responses.

I can tell you that in SE South Dakota, the acorns are covering the ground already.
