You should be hitting Illinois for my all-time favorite week of bowhunting here. In fact, check the record books and you'll find that a high percentage of our states biggest bucks have been tagged during the first week and a half in November. I know every year it seems that the biggest bucks fall between the 5th and10th, including a few of out state records! The 251 6/8" P&Y monster in my Avatar was taken onNov 8. Just hope for some cooler temps to keep 'emmovin' all day long. Good luck and good huntin'

THIS IS A GREAT TIME TO BE IN THE WOODS HERE IN ILLINOIS. LIKE CORNFED SAID, DEFINITELY HOPE FOR COOL TEMPS. GOOD LUCK

I will be there at that time you can bet! You will not go wrong in a treestand on those dates. Good time to be hunting. Good luck!

My Favorite time to hunt in IL. is from about Nov. 4th until the first slug season. Of course that could vary depending what ground you hunt and how much pressure it gets

Nov. 3 - 12 is the magical week.... with Nov. 11 being my all-time favorite day of the year!!

To go along with what Justin was first saying...

Thanks for the info, wheather is always hard to predict. The last couple of years in OH, the temps were up. Pray for cool temps.LOL

Nice buck Greg, was that in Il.?

Not only is that beautiful buck from IL,.... but he's from PUBLIC ground as well! I believe that makes Greg/MO a certified IL monster buck slayer!

That's wild Greg!! I think 3 of the 6 I have hanging on the wall were killed on Nov. 11th

Good luck. If the weather is right, you should definately see some good deer!

My good buddy IL-Cornfed is exactly right... Illinois... public ground.
