Default Illinois Bowhunters.........

I was wondering if anyone received their archery deer pins in the mail yet. I just gotone for my doe during shotgun season, but I would of thought they would have sent my 2 bow pins with it.

Just wanted to know if anyone got theirs yet or if they are waiting to send them out at the end of the season.

I didn't get a deer with a bow last year but I did with my shotgun. I think I sent in the form around the 20th of November but I haven't got my pin yet.

Still waiting.

I think I like the old system, you check your deer, they give you a pin. Easy and simple. Plus, I don't know about people honestly reporting deer and what they harvested.

Just my opinion

Yeah I agree Bols. The old system seemed like it was alot better. To me it seems like it would be really easy to cheat the new system.

I dont mean to change the subject of this thread or anything, but i was just wondering what the pins are for. I live in canada and we dont have a system like that. Is it just a little momento or somthing, or is it actually used for anything? I know i sound like a moron but i was just wondering....
