Default Bucks in the IL beans





Went out scouting in IL tonight to see what came out in the bean fields. I was there 2 weeks ago but they came out right at dark. Too late for pics and really couldn't see much. I think theylike the cooler weather and were out much earlier tonight.

Nice photos John.

Where those taken through a spotting scope or just straight zoom on the camera?

Yes, they are from the farm I hunt in IL. Now I just hope the rumors that everyone who applied for a tag will be getting one this year are true.

The pics are just with the cameras zoom. I had an idea where they were coming out into the field from my visit 2 weeks a go. So I sat in my truck on a field road next to a ditch. They came out a little closer than I thought they would. But didn't mind me being there. Then they just fed slowly away from me. Some pics are a little blurry because I was having a little trouble with buck fever (They give me the shakes even when I am not hunting them). Got some good video of them too.

Now I just have to figure out a way to get within bow range of them in about a month and a half. Season starts Oct. 1st.
