Here in Central IL activity has switched mostly to food sources. The orange army has definitely put a change on patterns though. I'll be out this weekend though regardless!

Where are you hunting whitty?

I'm thinking they oughta be moving realy hard right before this major front comes in... Looks like right now it may be Friday afternoon/Saturday Morning.

In november, my best hunt (out of a 9 day hunt) was an afternoon where it poured. There were 30 deer out in the soybeans that had just been cut, right in the middle of getting an inch of rain that day.

southern ill. also
reckon i'll stick to corn and wheat. seemed right after the beans were cut, lots of action but there wasn't much waste on the ground to keep'em...most of my action in oct./nov. was on corn and 10 yr stuff....hoping the wheat is up good now and that'll be the ticket!
